I'm a little confused about this? If I were to purchase a GTM-25 Traffic Receiver, would I still need to purchase a traffic "subscription" for it to work?
my understanding
My understanding is if you buy the receiver a subscription is included. If it comes as part of a package, then you have the ad supported version.

I have a NUVI 255W(T) that came with this. It says lifetime, I do get occasional Best Western popups, but it is not too bothersome. What I find more frustrating is that one day I get the traffic icon, another I do not in the same location. Not sure why, unless I am out of range or something
Opps!
one day I get the traffic icon, another I do not in the same location. Not sure why, unless I am out of range or something
May be that another day didn't have TRAFFIC congestion
It was only a joke above.
If you PLUG IN with your Traffic Receiver cable, you should have Green, Yellow or RED Traffic Icon depends on your Route.
Unless, you are not in the coverage area (Like Cell phones has no bars).
I would do a hard reset.
