Garmin Nuvi 3597 Doesn't Always Select Fastest Route Even Thought That Is What I Have Selected
I noticed today that my Garmin Nuvi 3597 doesn't always select the fastest route, even though that is what I have selected on the unit. Here is an example from this afternoon. I am at my neighborhood Home Depot and selected my nearby Wal-Mart. The ETA for the route it selected was 14:39 CST.

First running of GE since map update yields interesting issue
I loaded GE today, to see if any update was needed.... None. But...
It tells me my Nuvi 660 has an update.... 2689LMT does not need update, but Nuvi 660 does!!
Last thing I did with GE was Last week: Updated Maps on both 2689LMT and Nuvi 660...
So I click on 660 and find out it thinks I didn't load maps!

Send Address From Google To Garmin GPS Via Wifi Or Bluetooth
Just a few minutes ago, I was looking for a business that I could not find in Smartphone Link. It would be nice if I could find it on Google and send it wirelessly to my Garmin GPS.

2006 Streetpilot 7500
Hi,
We purchased the Streetpilot 7500 for our motorhome in 2006. It is still in great condition but I have no idea if it is still useful/updateable/valuable in any way.
Any input is greatly appreciated!

Does anyone know how to transfer Custom Avoidances from one map release to another? Every update I am re-entering Custom Avoidances into the new maps. TIA

How long to changes take to make it into a map update?
I was wondering how dated the map updates are by the time they're released.
Here in the Chicago area, we've had a lot of highways redesigned and re-routed in the last year or two, one of them being converted into a tollway (and at about $0.19 p/mile, the most expensive one in the state) that started collecting tolls in early July, though toll collection had been planned years earlier.

map update did not go well
Up date 3597 to 2018.10 is a disaster. Never had a problem in the past with any up date. Unit shows 2018.10 installed. I downloaded to device only.
After up date map only shows major roads in yellow NO secondary roads can not navigate in simulator mode (tries but can't make turns) and green line showing my last several trips.

Problems with 2018.10 download on my 2558
Others have reported as well so problem is not unique. When downloading update I get the red icon "There was a problem installing the update." Approx. 1/2 way complete then I get the message. Tried unplugging and restarting with same results?
Any ideas?
Thanks

New map 2018.1O disapointments
There are still many "Road ahead" notices that skip over the next road (or several). Some improvements though.. one main road in my area is now properly identified as "next" where in the previous version it was skipped. This version skips over one of the main intersections in Edmonton (did in last version as well). Or.. it shows the next road as the same one you are currently driving on..

Unlocking In Basecamp For The First Time With WIN10
I just installed North America 2018.10 on my Nuvi 40 (succesfully) and installed it on my PC too. I did the same thing with 2017.30 and made a cursory attempt to unlock 2017.30 and gave up. I shouldn't have to point out that on WIN7 unlocking just worked.

Trip Planner App / Nuvi
I have had numerous Garmin Zumo units. I now purchased a 2598 for my car. I enjoy creating custom routes on Basecamp for the scenery. When I used custom routes on the Zumo 550, I would just start the route and it would take me from point to point (via point or way point).
Garmin nüLink! 1690/1695 LIVE
Does anybody remember, or still have/use, the Garmin nüLink! 1690/1695 LIVE GPS units? I never had either one, but I remember thinking that they were pretty cool years ago. I am wondering if Garmin would ever resurrect those features, but rather than having it with it's own cellular connection, have it link to your smartphone via bluetooth, like we do with traffic.
