 Wrong Instruction Manual Sent January 6, 2009
The nuvi garmin is great, but I have not been able to utilize the traffic feature as I was sent an instruction book for a unit that does not include the traffic feature. I have been unable to obtain the correct book to date, and wonder if the traffic transmitter even works!
 A Hidden Feature - Route tracing January 6, 2009
In addition to everyone else's review, I just wanted to point out a hidden feature not documented anywhere. If you use 2-D display, it traces your path with a light blue line. There is no way to turn it off. The trace stays for 2 weeks. On a freeway, the trace is sided. If you go to a new place, very likely you can follow the trace back without having to ask it for direction. When you frequent a parking lot, you can also see the parking lot gradually being filled up with light blue (your trace). It's like a game encouraging you to explore new routes. Fun feature! Give it a try! I wish they have documented it!
Consumer Reports Is Right Again January 6, 2009
I have an older version that came with a different car. I bought this one after reading about it in consumer reports which I love. This one is great. Bigger Screen, same features and I love that you can take it with you, when you travel to another car or use a rental car or travel to Europe as we did one time. It tells you when to turn before you turn in plenty of time, and shows the turn on the screen. You also put in your "Home" and where ever you are you just put in "home" and it will get you there no matter what!!
Love the Garmin 265wt January 6, 2009
We drove from Idaho to Las Vegas, Los Angeles, San Diego and Mexico. Our trip would have been horrible had we not decided to purchase the Garmin beforehand. This navigator was amazing. We even started referring to it as "she" after the first day. It was like a friend taking us on a sightseeing tour!! I highly recommend anyone driving in unfamiliar territory get this device, you will see more sights and have so much more fun.

It's all that I hoped it would be. Still learning all of it's features. Can not wait to take a long vacation trip with it.
