Save Garmin nüvi 855 4.3-Inch Widescreen Portable GPS Navigator with Speech Recognition


I am not a GPS guru as this was my first nav unit. I just sold my other car which had dash navigation in which you could only type in the street # and address while in park which was very user unfriendly, especially for a passenger to operate it. My new car does not have a navigation system. The voice command of the 855 Nuvi is awesome and the street names and graphics are far superior compared to what was in the Cadillac. I chose not to do the windshield mount since I am getting that Nav units are popular smash and grab items. I mounted mine with a single 1/2 width strip of velcro which rests at the bottom of the vertical center dash display. It is very easy to see and remove if I want to store it in the center console. I only use with battery power since I did not want leads going to the cig lighter. Furthermore, I attached the voice command prompt buttom on the shift lever as opposed to the steering wheel which was the recommended location. The only drawback compared the other indash nav unit is that the voice command to turn left or right only gives you about a 50' warning which in my opinion should be sooner. Overall, I am extremely happy with the unit.Get more detail about Garmin nüvi 855 4.3-Inch Widescreen Portable GPS Navigator with Speech Recognition.
