I charge my Garmin 765 at home before a moderate road trip and run it on battery the whole way. The highway is not subject to traffic jams and the only alternative route is busier and longer, so I don't need the Garmin's in-car charger/traffic monitor. Thus, I don't have a cord dangling down my windshield to obstruct my view or excite the interest of the law enforcement establishment, which likely would mistake it for a radar detector. You can guess the reason for that.

I thought the charger was a bit pricey, but in a relatively short ownership I have no reason to fault it.

I moved to a new area of town that was foreign to me. I need to rely on a GPS just to find where I am going. I go nowhere without my "Gina" and usually she works just fine. Sometimes though she gets out of calibration and I can't do a darn thing with the touch screen. Traffic warnings are useless. Still overall, I'm ok with purchase because I'm not sure I'd be able to get home sometimes I get so turned around. Love the Home feature, wish the favorites would sort alphabetically or allow for category sorting.

The Gomadic charger is NOT substantial when compared to the Garmin charger. Wire is thinner, multiple plugs are bulky, and the charging unit is "fragile" when compared to the more substantially-built Garmin unit. Both work, but for the same price go with the high quality Garmin unit.

Item was purchased as part of a gift package for my daughter, she says she loves everything.

The ease of use is topmost when traveling. I just wish the plug prongs were retractable to conserve space.

I have been needing a GPS for a while and finally gave myself an xmas present. I have no patience so I opened the package and immediately started playing around. It is SOOOOOOO easy. It is very accurate on arrival time and this device also has shown me real time image on tricky intersections. I LOVE it.

I like my Garmin GPS and the only problem I have is with Amazon's product description which lead me to believe that this

model had the junction view of interstates as the photo shows and it does not have this feature. I haven't used

the traffic report yet but will be in June and we'll see how that goes. It was easy to set up and Garmin let me know of their

free map update as soon as I registered it. Did that before the 60 days deadline.

GPS has been work great, it is easy to setup and showed the road clearly with lovely voice.
