Can I Rely On My GPS If It Can't Find My House?
on January 7, 2010
Posted by: BIW3
from Fairfax, VA
We are late to the party for GPS but we liked using one when on vacation in CA. So, when I saw the 255WT on sale for $129.99, I went for it. For areas that we know it is not helpful. There are often better routes. Also, it thinks our house is on the right side of the street when it is on the left and it tries to take me to a dead end service road when approaching my house from a specific direction I hope it will do better when we are traveling in areas we do not know. We will use it with caution.
It is easy to use and the voice directions are easy to follow. The 4.3" screen is only for use when you are stuck in traffic or pulled over.
So, it is OK but not the best thing since sliced bread!
What's great about it: I got a great buy on Black Friday but even the regular sale price is a good deal
What's not so great: Like, I said, it is directionally challenged on occaision.
I would recommend this to a friend!
