Time for a new Nuvi?

 
Mon, 03/23/2009 - 12:34pm

I'm looking at getting a new nuvi, does anyone know witch units come with Traffic included, a 4.3 inch screen, and the new UI that shows he next turn at the top left. I know the most expensive newest ones have those and more, but I'm on a budget.

I am replacing my 760 with lifetime traffic(that I bought separately)and saw the 205W, but I want traffic included.

Amazon has some really good deals that I want to take advantage of.

New Nuvi

Try this first to see if it helps you. Me I like the 780, but the 755T is also nice. Depend on your needs.

The 705 Series

Vic,
The 705 series has all of the features that you are looking for. The 755t is the base, 765t adds bluetooth wireless, 775t adds maps for Europe & the 785 includes an MSN® Direct receiver (pay subscription traffic as well as the standard FM lifetime free traffic).

They all include lifetime FM traffic (Note that this feature is ad supported. I haven't had a problem with this as it only shows very small, single ads that only appear when stopped), speak street names, 3d building views, lane assist (next turn at the top left), junction view (big picture of the interchange showing overhead signage & a big arrow showing you where to go) & a 4.3" widescreen.

I hope this helps.

Thanks, all!

I just pulled the trigger on the 755T for $335.00 from Amazon.

nuvi 755t

Weird that I got mine (755t) 4 months ago for 299 (tigerdirect.com)... I thought the price should have gone down since... I was very lucky.

update

Just make sure you update it, people have been complaining about the 7x5 series about one thing or another. My 765T has crashed only once but that's while I was driving and I was having it do things before it recovered from the previous things. It's perfectly fine when I leave it alone.
