Like this Model (Magellan RoadMate 3045-LM) because it is simple to use for what it does, gets me from point A to point B, and tells me Miles and ETA. I have 2 of this Model to use in both vehicles. Includes FREE Lifetime Software and Map Up-Dates and Traffic. This Model is so good that though Magellan released it in 2010, they are still selling New and Refurbished ones on their website. 4-STARS because it has some "Quirks" (doesn't seem to "see" some shorter/quicker Routs - software needs updated). Selecting Shortest Distance in a city produces a useless zig-zag route left/right/left/etc. from block to block.

My daughter needs a GPS for driving outside of her local area, so we bought this Magellan 3045LM when she started work. She's used it now for about 3 months and been reasonably satisfied with it - storing addresses, getting her to the correct address, being reasonably easy to understand. All of these are reasonably good. I do have to say that at times, it can be hard to understand the voice that is telling you the name of the upcoming street, but if you listen for the sounds of which way to turn, you will be fine. Just do yourself a favor and DON'T DROP IT!!
We bought this as an upgrade to the Magellan Maestro, for the updated maps free all yr long. This GPS has been so helpful in lots of ways, having a speedometer on it is great cuz our gauges sometimes work and sometimes don't, that and when working it is 20 mph off. The directions are easy to understand and hear and follow, the arrows are fantastic and little dings when to turn. The screen is nice and big and when there is traffic trouble it gives detour routes, which is a great help so I am not stuck in traffic and lost if I turn off somewhere. The only bad thing I can say is that it can't read my mind as far as the way I know is a straight shot & easy to get to so I ignore the directions. The address book and points of interest and ease of putting places in is absolutely fantastic. I get lost in a paper bag and this GPS tells me how to get home :) My fiance' likes it also. We use it everydayRead full review
unit works good - simple to use has a problem sometimes when using shortest route option
