Unit was unresponsive after following the set up instructions, wouldn't read its memory card & wouldn't upload start up programs to my laptop.

It was a waste of my time.

Ok I will try to be brief. First you must run the update or you will be annoyed with it. It has some major flaws right out of the box but they are fixed with the first update. It tracks all of your miles in every state that you drive in and then you can have them displayed by date for fuel taxes that's why I bought it, and so far that has worked correctly. The gps works well but the maps get a little shaky in smaller towns and it will direct you down some tight roads. some times I have found it takes me past the easy on/off entrance to a plant and then has me making tight turns and driving on roads through town only to find there was a huge road that went straight to the entrance. But again I think RandMc will fix these issues in later updates. I have been really glad that i had the GPs unit a bunch of times it got me out of some crazy situations and I generally trust the unit now so I do recomend it, maybe wait a while for a price drop though if you already have a gps.
