I love it!!

 

This GPS is amazing and a steal at the price I got it. It's got a large enough screen that I don't have to squint and it's so easy to use. I'm so glad I got this.

Nice GPS for entry level

 

Nice GPS for entry level

This is my first GPS and I found it to be worth money spent. It has video, audio, games, aux support other than the main Navigation feature. Screen size is awesome. I loved it but the POI is not too exhaustive.
