Last Oct I got the Garmin 465T for 450.00 + 25.00 shiping from Garmin. As a OTR Driver I need a good GPS for my job. I have been with Garmin sence the Street Pilot they have a good rep an a good CS. saying that the 465T is a pice of junk. It takes me. off route on to roads I should not be on. it will not let me go on roads I should on. It will takes me 15-20 miles out of the way per run. I have worked with CS on the matter over an over. I even got the new mapes nothing has worked. Two weeks ago I got the new Rand McNally TND 510 for 350.00 at a Loves Truck Stop. I compared them side by side for the last two weeks. AND THE WINNER IS Rand McNally TND 510 it is doing every thing the Garmin 465T is not doing and a lot more. As of this writing It has done every thing I have ask of it an has given me the right information to save my trucking Company money. The Garmin had cost my Company money in lost time and lost fuel. I will find out this week if I can do my POI's I hope I can. jolleyr
And before?
I was wondering what routing info you used before you bought the Garmin. Paper maps or a routing service similar to Mapquest?
