I got the Magellan 9465T-LMB just before Christmas. We used it on short 10-13 minute trip and it worked fine, the volume was a little quiet but not bad. Right after Christmas we went to our daughter's, about a 20-25 minute trip again, it worked fine really like some of the features. The first part of February we needed to pick up a table, so typed the address in and took off. About 30 minutes into the trip the screen went blank, nothing, I pushed the power button and the screen popped up with the comment don't use it while operating vehicle I pushed ok and the screen continued with directions, abut a mile later the same thing, After about 4 times, we shut it off and used the paper directions. I contacted Magellan and no I couldn't get a new one because it was after 30 days. After about 6 or more e-mails. I paid to send it back to Magellan and got a REBURBISHED unit (I paid for a NEW unit because I didn't want a refurbished one so now I have a refurbished unit for the price of a NEW unit). We just got it, tried it out. Typed in the address and the little green arrow is going down the road, BUT none of the buttons work. Not the zoom in, zoom out, menu, one touch, nothing. I tried shutting if off and turning it back on - the screen is the same as when I shut it off, the little green arrow but no buttons work. I tried shutting it off and pushing buttons for about 20 miles and all of a sudden it started working right. I contacted Magellan to see what to do, I got the tech support, but before they can help me, I need to enter my credit card info. If they help, they'll charge my card, if not they won't. I am not giving my card info out and letting them decided how much to charge me later. I also typed in the address to get a "free download of the user manual" well all the sites listed charge for the download. I don't know what hoops I'll have to jump through to get free updates, If I can at all. In review Magellan doesn't stand behind their product and if you need help forget it. I'll never buy a Magellan again, and am telling everyone I know to save their money! I did try down loading updates. When it was done I got a message saying there were two updates available so I did it again and got the same message so the updates are not downloading to my gps. I used it going to my daughters. The gps took me off the highway and right back on again. It drove me all over Stillwater instead of the shortest route which I had checked. The same route was taken with the fastest route. After several more e-mails, they responded by saying there is nothing wrong. The gps gives suggestions and it is up to me to go take the route I want. I cannot say it enough. Save your money and buy something else. I'm going to have to junk this one because I cannot depend on it. I got a gps to take me to my destination, If I knew where to go I wouldn't need it.Read full review

I have owned quite a few GPS, you name it, I most likely can claim it. My wife and I really like this GPS because of it friendly operation, it really does it all, beside drive the car for you. GOOD PURCHASED, I'm happy.

I bought this because it worked better than the one that came with my car in 2011. Just traded in the car on a new one and requested NO GPS!!! Had bought my wife a Magellan for her car which had no GPS and I fell in love with it. Being able to start adding new places to go just by putting in the ZIP code is a real time saver. Also the warning "Red Light Camera Ahead" is a potential money saver!!
