I had a great experience with Garmin Nuvi 260W until it died. The Nuvi255WT was the next upgrade. Unfortunately, it will freeze on you half the time when 1) You plug or unplug it when it's already on 2) Make it recalculate more than 3 times
The freezing is very inconvenient, especially if you're trying to be a safe driver and not operate the GPS while driving. I have returned the same model twice, thinking it was just an outlying glitch. Unfortunately, they all had the same problem.
What's great about it: Easy to use, good touch screen, traffic feature
What's not so great: This version will freeze every other time you make it recalculate.
