255WT GPS - Highly Recommed, A++ rating.
on November 7, 2009
Posted by: Larry1001
from Dallas, TX
I’ve used the nüvi 255WT for two months and have found it to be a great GPS. I frequently travel for both business and pleasure and wanted a slim design with a wide screen that would be easy to carry and read while traveling. I’ve used the 255WT in a number of cities (Chicago, Detroit, Nashville, Miami, St. Louis, Toronto, and locally in Dallas), and the unit has worked flawlessly. The traffic feature worked perfect in multiple cities warning me of traffic delays and provided me assurance that I could make my flights on time. The 255WT comes with lifetime traffic updates at no additional cost!
The wide 4.3” screen is large and easy to read even in the sunniest conditions. The unit finds and connects to the satellites very quickly and gives accurate directions 95% of the time (anyone who has owned an in-car or portable GPS know they do occasionally make mistakes, but will ultimately get you where you are going). The speaker is loud and clear and the turn by turn directions which speak the street names is a feature you don’t want to be without.
I paid $179.00 on sale and have absolutely no buyer’s remorse. I did not need a Bluetooth interface for hands free calling and saved quite a few dollars (265WT has Bluetooth which is the only difference from 255WT).
Remember, no GPS is perfect…I have two factory installed GPS units in my cars at home, and this unit works equally as well for one tenth the cost. I highly recommend it!

What's not so great: No Complaints
I would recommend this to a friend!
