 very happy with product! July 14, 2008

We bought our GPS for a cross country road trip from Minnesota to California. It was a very useful tool especially when we had to find places to stop for batrhoom breaks for our kids. It was easy to find the nearest gas stations and restaurants. The only disappointing thing was it didn't tell you where roadside rest stops were along the interstate, but that is probably with any GPS.
 Best GPS Ever! July 14, 2008

I must say this is the best GPS I have ever used. The first thing I did when I set it up was put in my work address. It is the first GPS or online mapping program (Google Maps/Mapquest) that actually suggested the route that I actually take and makes the most sense. I was impressed. I enjoy the maps and the directions. It is far superior to the GPS in my Acura or Honda Accord. Garmin should be installed in vehicles!
The bluetooth was a bit hard to set up but once it was connected it allows me to find my address book and recent calls, etc. The bluetooth in the Acura did almost nothing right but this one is great.
The only feature I don't use is the music. I use my Ipod for that.

Have only had the unit for a litte while and have been quite pleased with its performance. Didnt give it 5 stars because it occasionally takes too long to lock on to the satillites. However once locked on it is a treasure to own.
Amazon is simply the best July 11, 2008

This is not a review about the Garmin 760 but the Customer Service behind it. I have bought thousands of dollars worth of merchandise from Amazon and never had a problem, but when my Garmin 760 arrived it had a small crack in the screen. I notified the return dept and the "VERY NEXT MORNING" on my doorstep was a new replacement. They also emailed me Return Authorization labels and kept me informed by email about the whole thing.
I was absolutely floored to have gotten the new one even before I sent the old one back, Amazon has a customer for life......
One last thing the 760 is a great GPS...
Liked it so much, bought two more! July 11, 2008

I bought this version last Christmas for my mom. After the parents had to make an emergency trip (due to a pending death in the family) where the Garmin took them right to the hospital door at 2 AM (after traveling 200 miles), I bought one for my Dad's car and one for myself.
I'm still learning all the bells and whistles - figuring out how to get it to do the "scenic" route is a bit tricky... if traveling, you'll still have to do the research yourself before the trip. (Recently wanted to travel the more scenic route home.. and really considering Seattle traffic, that scenic route would have been faster at that time of day. The Garmin wanted me to get off that scenic route)
If using it for vacations, some preplanning might still be necessary (when the purpose is the journey, and not getting from point A to point B in the best time or distance possible).
One other glitch... individual home addresses may be off a little. My parents' home is shown on several lots over when I program their address in. It isn't so far off to bother me... it still got me in the general area, and if I hadn't been there before I'd be able to find it by keeping my eyes open.
