A good GPS with lots of features

I purchased this GPS as a tool for my company so we could program in vendor locations for our truck drivers. So far it's been a very nice GPS and I've considered buying one for myself to replace my old Magellan one.
I love the Traffic feature that warns you of traffic ahead and to exit freeways or streets even when you don't have a current destination or route. This alone is reason to have one of these.
Second off, I love that it has 1000 user programable destinations. I have set up the good majority of our vendors (more as I drive to them) and it's easier for our other drivers to find them now.
Only cons that I can think of are that you have to be EXACTLY in the spot you programmed into the GPS, I'm talking down to exact parking space and everything, in order for it to count you as arrived at your location. It also sometimes gets confused with the user programmed destinations and says "destination on the left hand side" when it's on the right and vise versa. I would also like to see the addition of a chime or some sort of voice command when you are supposed to make your turns or when you reach a major location.
Other than that, this has been a wonderful GPS and it's much more feature rich than the ones I have previously used. All in all a good buy for the price.
What's great about it: Traffic alerts and programmable destinations
What's not so great: Need to be in EXACT spot saved in user destinations for it to register. No chime on turn or arrival.
I would recommend this to a friend!
