I bought this unit and I like some of the new features. I'm really not happy that Garmin took away features that I used to have on my nuvi 1690 such as Garmin lock. I had my nuvi 1690 stolen recently and that's a real peace of mind to know whoever took it now has a boat anchor.
It's strange that if you select the versions without the bluetooth or lifetime maps features the price goes up. $140 as advertised, w/o bluetooth is $150, w/o maps is $192!

Should I upgrade?
How does it compare to my 765T?
That figures
Most of the time when I buy something in a short time I can count on the price dropping.
Anytime you have a 50-50 chance of getting something right, there's a 90% probability you'll get it wrong.
Low Price Gone
Now $166.46
