Wide screen version of my previous one.

Purchased smaller one earlier and liked it. My son needed a dependable and easy to use GPS. So, I gave him that one and purchased this one. The wide screen version seems to have slightly larger lettering and is easier to read for someone of my age. Has all the features and operating functions are mostly identical to previous unit and was able to switch without problems. My other two GPS's were from another manufacturer. But, I am quite happy with the Garmins.

Good but a mixed bag

This unit replaced a Garmin 255W whose battery failed. It both finds satellites and runs much faster, but it lost the speed limit display feature of the 255w (quite handy)--why, since the data are there? It is more precise, now 50 ft instead of 100 ft. Has an interesting eco driving feature that apparently calcs how ecologically one is driving but which I have not yet figured out.
