garmin free traffic

 

Has anyone used the free lifetime traffic from garmin with the ads. I am thinking of purchasing a new gps and wonder if this is a problem. I have an garmin streetpilot c580 and like it, but if I can purchase a new gps for about the same as the cost of lifetime traffic from garmin, it would seem better to purchass the new unit

Ads on the 765T

I have the 765T, and while I do not live in an area where the free traffic is available, I have used it on a few trips. Whether I was not paying attention to the ads, or they never came up on screen, the ONLY time I saw an ad (very small) was when I was in the driveway of my destination. Based on my little experience with them, I would have no problem personally recommending the unit to someone, if it fit all their needs and their only concern was the size and frequency of ads popping up

Ads-

On my 765T, the ads are very small and unobtrusive. The only time I see them is at a complete stop, or when navigating the traffic pages. I hardly ever notice them anymore.
