Just found a great review at GPSmagazine Rating: 4 of 5. Its like 2 plus page review. Just google GPSmagazine for the websight. I like the fact its duel mode. Less then two weeks for the release.

i got the garmin nuvi 305, bouth it a year ago, with truck option on it, no it does not do heights or weights, it simply keeps you off parkways, and all major non-truck routes, keeps you out of most residential neighborhoods, i trust this unit 99%, still always check my map book when going places iv never gone before,
back in april i got the world nav, 7 in screen, $650...
its a real peice of you no what!!!
i cant return it to any store, world nav never calls me back, never emails me back everytime i call or email. its the worse of the worse out there!
im excited about the new garmin, if you read all the reviews and the many different types of gps units on the market, you never see bad write ups on any type of garmin. i think the new one will be a great hit.
just stay away from world nav
ps.
anyone have any advise on how to get my money back from world nav? -
I have to say that as the time for the release of the 465t is near, I am now leaning away from it... for now. I am a little strapped for cash as I have a summer trip planned for Vegas. Who knows, if Vegas goes good I'll buy everyone on here a 465t!!
But right now I am thinking I would like one for finding my way to customers. The ability to pinpoint on screen where the address is. See the streets that are coming up so I know when to get ready to turn. Being able to track distance, speed and other things like that is good too. All that is really what I want it for. 12 years of driving has given me the knowledge of where low bridges are, what routes I'm not allowed on, etc. I would say the lane assist would be helpful. But I have made it 12 years on my own. I would not be getting rid of my atlas, but adding the GPS as another tool.
So I am debating between the 255w and the 265w. Possibly the wt's. I can afford one of those two. Any suggestions? -
i am little shocked they do not include a windshield mount. but then mayby not since states like mn ban stuff being mounted on windshield. i like the extra lenght in the cord guess they where think outs side a four wheel.
