TomTom XXL 540 S

Pros: Like Google Maps witha Twist of Rand McNally with the best feature Every Bathroom at your Fingertips. MAP SHARE- lets say your on St Pete Beach it will show you every hotel with telephone number and what ever else you can imagine, and they Exist Stil

Cons: USB 1.O Syncs with your PC really SLOW but it is Perfection 2.
Everybody that owns a Garmin but never Used a Tom Tom will Swear they are the best even though they have never compared them going across the whole country side by side.

Summary: 1. Unlike Garmin Its maps are 100% correct, used for 5 years no problems with Tom Toms, it wont tell you to take a left turn where a house has been sitting for 50 years. Users share this data for free so its always correct. Great In NY, CT, FL,havent used it anywhere else, US Great, if you dont like extra infromation that garmin just does not provide on the screen without going thugh menues to find out how many more miles on the same road, then this GPS is not for you. If you are old and easily confused by technology again not for you, go with a garmin less to look at. Tom tom will find anything your looking for even if you dont fully type it in or write it wrong, if you dont like that go with other GPS brands that make you state exactly what they think it is, like N. Main st, which is really just Main Street. This GPS in really geared for people who will use it all the time , gives you shops food with numbers, and its acully right. But if you want to find the same thing in any other GPS you just have to press the item and hope it still exists because they use listings from old yellow pages. Anyway, if you plan to find fun places to visit or just put them in so when you drive somewhere you can see them without looking forthem like i have every donkin and fast food rest area and stores on my map, i have a much more fun time going places because i see where im going. It always after using it in my business doing repo homes, i would get some of the weirdest addresses, and i would find them no problem, the garmin would wase about 2 hours of my life per 24 hour working period. Altho this is not for LARGE TRUCKS, as another person said its for cars, the road looks bigger like a highway because you can drive 50 on and your ok. BUT ITS NOT FOR A BIG RIG you will nail the roof of your truck using tom tom, so go with garmin. But for everyone else who likes google maps and how that works, this is the next best thing! No one can compete with the Million + poi that are correct. Altho if you ask that highschool teen at best buy or that 40 year old winner behind the service counter they will twist your arm for a Garmin Accident, NEWS story TRUE FACT, no old people ever got stuck for 3 days in a snowy road because of TOM TOM. Look it up its a real story GARMIN they dont know what the hell they are doing. Do you like Rand Mcnally Maps like along time ago, this is like that but mixed with google and digitaly awsome!.
Shows you Same Speed Arival Routes so you can get out of traffic from people who have Garmin Magellin and other standard Car
company crap and you wont get the pleasure of wasting hours of life in traffic. But really just try to use a Garmin to get you to go thrugh a road you want to go and then to your destiation withought acually putting in a Street you dont want to be on but thats the only thing you can think of as a second point of destination your Garmin will make you go on that street instead of just going direct backroads like the TOMTOM will suggest right
