I have used other GPS devices in the past, and nothing compares to the 255WT. It is a great deal for the relatively low price and the features are wonderful. The traffic feature and avoidance really comes in handy for long highway trips. It is also slim, which makes it easy to carry/stow away in between travel. The large 4.3" screen can be scratched somewhat easily, so it might be worth it to invest in a carrying case or sleeve.
What's great about it: Clear maps, good directions, and great value
What's not so great: Can get scratched without cover
