Hold The GPS Secure
on November 28, 2015
Posted by: tom49801
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is their top of the line dash mount and I really wasn't planning to spend this much, but, the lesser cost model didn't have the same nice weighted feel. I keep the included suction mount as a "just in case" spare, but, I didn't want to keep removing it from my windshield. The dash mount makes it easy to stow away when parking so that you're not advertising the fact you have a GPS unit stashed inside your car. The base is a bit flexible to form fit it to any curves on your dashboard. Before using it, wipe the dash area clean using rubbing alcohol to help keep the dash mount in place (read this in the instructions). The base is tacky to help keep it in place, but, do be mindful if making any sudden sharp turns to just place a finger on the base because the base is not glued to your dash (I had to react fast while making a U-Turn a bit too fast than I should had). This model is worth the money vs. the lesser cost models I had seen.

Nice Case

I bought this case to protect my Garmin's screen from scratches while storing it in the glove box or under the seat of my car. The zipper has a nice quality feel to it and a nice inside liner, too. This is a good investment to protect your GPS screen. None of the carrying cases I had seen while shopping had a carrying strap, which, would have been a nice addition since the case material is slippery to the touch and can be dropped easily.

Great Screen Size & Easy To Use
on November 28, 2015
Posted by: tom49801
Verified Purchase:Yes
I had read many reviews before purchasing this unit & found this is a very easy device to use. I chose this model because of its 6 inch screen which makes for easy viewing from the dash mount. I also had purchased the their top model dash mount which has more weight than the lesser cost model. The dash mount has a tacky bottom surface to help keep it in place, I prefer this over using the suction cup style mount that is included with this GPS unit. The included power cord has a longer length than most cords that are supplied with cell phones, so, you can place the GPS just about anywhere in your vehicle. I also bought the soft carry case to protect the screen from scratches when storing the unit. I've always wanted a GPS unit & had relied on a cell phone in the past. But with my Garmin unit, I am able to glance at its larger screen much easier than the cell phone, and seeing clearly how far away I am from my next turn. Plus, I like the fact of being connected directly to the GPS satellites & not worrying about being in a fringe cell phone reception area. The unit counts down in 0.1 mile increments as you're driving and displays your vehicle speed as well. Icons also will show up on the screen for various gas stations & restaurants you are nearing. I thought it was so cool to see their actual business logos popping up on the screen. This is an excellent unit & a great value for the price. I highly recommend this product.
