I just got this unit and made a short trip (6 hours each way) to New Orleans using it. I have not updated map yet. I am not sure yet, but this unit seems to have a weird sense of direction. I was headed up I-85 past Montgomery, AL. That part it got right. But it wanted me to exit I-85 about 20 miles early and take two lane road to my location just outside Auburn. I am not sure what it was thinking, but there are a number of low weight limit bridges on the nearby roads and the only sure thing is to get off at Auburn exit and then backtrack about a mile.
With that said...It has a great screen that is plenty bright for me. I used suction cup to attach to bottom of the overhead console. Easy to read and control at that location. Never had trouble with getting a GPS signal there either.
Will report more experience as I get used to it.
