Garmin Nuvi 760

The nuvi works very well overall. There are times where it takes the longer way than it should, but there are many times where it gives a me a shortcut.

Product great, concern about the purchase process

Amazon invited me to review the product and I will, along with some comments about the purchasing experience. I love the product. Comments about the purchasing experience. Maybe I am too greedy. I purchased the GPS on the Amazon site, but it was directed to Beach Camera. The item was received on time, in good condition. My issue, maybe an incorrect one, is that in the past when I have purchased electronic items and the price goes down within 30 days the seller will match their lower price and even competitors. Well, the price did go down and I wanted to get the reduced price, I foolishly suggested I would return the item,( as allowed during the timeframe) and immediately re-buy it at the lower price. Again, most stores I've dealt with will lower the price without having to return the item. Well, I was directed to return the item with all appropriate packaging, ship it prepaid, with a 10% restocing charge. This, I believe is to prevent the issuing of a lower price by making it so inconvenient and expensive to return. Anyway, I swallowed the price rather than go through that hassle. However, in the future I will think seriously about online buying from Amazon and deal with people face to face who will honor lower prices within a 30 day period. Once more, the product is great.

Love my 760

I bought the 760 for a cross-country road trip between California and Chicago for myself and my son. We used it for everything and it was amazing! It directed us to every hotel we booked and every restaurant we chose. It kept track of our drive times, kept us aware of the speed limit of the roads we were on and gave us plenty of time to be prepared for upcoming turns, even with the voice turned off. I LOVE it.

Hey Garmin - Read my Review!

I cannot add much more to the other Reviewers. This is great GPS. But, I HATE how the search returns characters from the middle or end of results. I'm looking for Applebees, - and I type in: APP and Find - in order of the distance ... hAPPy panda hAPPy china snAPPle distribution stopgAP Performance and many, many other business with 'app' ANYWHERE in their name and names. I SWEAR to you, Garmin, NO customer searches for the Middle or End of terms we are looking for.

Stick to paper maps!

I purchased the Nuvi 760,after returning the 660 for its poor maps.The 760 came with 2008 maps,and Garmin would not let me download free 2009 maps.It seems the unit I bought had been activated 4 months earlier.I don't know if it is Garmin or Amazon sellig returned units as new,but no more Garmin products for me! I would not bet my life on the directions the 760 gave either.The nearest police were 5 towns away,same with hospitals.We have 2 police stations in this town,both over 25 years in the same location.Our hospital is 5 times the size of the nearest one the 760 gives! My 3 year old in-dash gps is twice as accurate!
