The unit arrived in a very timely manner. Easy set up.
There is an awful lot of things to like about this, especially for the price. This unit is one of the very few I found that will accommodate either a car, RV and Truck. When you set it up you can set it for RV/Truck and enter not only length but weight(for weight restricted bridges) and that all important HEIGHT . I tested it yesterday and it did warn me that on my chosen route II had a bridge with a clearance well below my stated height restriction. Very helpful, especially when one encounters unforeseen detours along a chosen route.
What I especially like is that if you deviate from the units chosen route it does quickly figure out that you chose a different route and it recalculates from that point. Unlike my Subaru that absolutely insists that you make a U turn and conform to its stated route regardless of what you want.
There IS some sort of WINDOWS browser that enables you to do some internet searching presumably through a phone as a data hotspot but I have not tested this.
It also plays music and videos if that is of any interest.
The only real negatives I found with this unit is 1. It is only Windows based so updating maps might be a problem fo MacONLY users. The company says that there is a way to do it so---just to test the Mac system I checked in with customer service to update my maps and received a IMMEDIATE cordial response that made perfect sense and assured me that based on my order no I had the latest maps. So, Customer service seems to work very well.but I have not tested it yet. 2.The programing does not include a GO HOME button like all the others. Again, there IS a work around by putting your home into the Favorites but in my case there was not enough room to enter the complete address---it works well enough but looks incomplete. I suggest lengthening the data inout to allow for a few more characters and add a Proper GO HOME button.
All in all--when you compare this to units that cost far more, this is a good deal.
