4 out of 5 stars   I like my new Nuvi
By Jerry on October 18, 2010
Verified Purchase
Review submitted for Garmin nuvi 765T North America City Navigator GPS (GRNUVI765T)
Pros: Reliable Performance, Easy To Read, Acquires Satellites Quickly
Cons: Vague user instructions
Other Comments: Setting up way-points to control a "custom route" was not well documented or easy to find if there was documentation. It kept telling me to take exits at hwy intersections I used just to control whether I took 69 or 65 from Michigan to Indy. Either way, I'm a little dissappointed in the user-guide documentation. I'm sure there are features I'm not using, but the directions aren't intuitive enough to have names that describe a real benefit. I'm not sure why someone would want to play music or e-books out the speaker, but this comes with that capability. I'd rather listen to my car stereo and have the nuvi blue-tooth interrupt with its information and then go back to my stereo. .... It's a good unit, but I probably bought the wrong one if I didn't want to use it's speaker for anything else.

5 out of 5 stars   Smartest gal we know!
By Mr. Ray on August 03, 2010
Verified Purchase
Review submitted for Garmin nuvi 765T North America City Navigator GPS (GRNUVI765T)
Pros: Large Screen, Easy To Set Up, Simple Controls, Easy To Read, Acquires Satellites Quickly, Easy Menus, Compact, Reliable Performance
Cons:
Other Comments: We travel often and have been using printed maps and/or internet directions. Since I drive my wife reads directions and often I end up screaming "where do I turn or do I turn here now?" With our Garmin, I simply listen to "the smartest gal I know" giving accurate and timely info on all driving directions. I love it and my wife says it makes all our trips much more enjoyable. Go Garmin!

4 out of 5 stars   Looking Good
By dragonbird on July 28, 2010
Verified Purchase
Review submitted for Garmin nuvi 765T North America City Navigator GPS (GRNUVI765T)
Pros: Easy To Read, Easy Menus, Simple Controls, Compact, Large Screen, Easy To Set Up
Cons: None so far
Other Comments: I go on long trips during the summer. My old GPS, a Magellan Color kept turning off on me and the maps are out of date. I bought this unit due to the good reviews and the great price. So far I like it, my son does too. The only thing I wish for was be more versatile mounting options. I don't read manuals, and this unit was real easy to figure out.

4 out of 5 stars   Works perfectly
By redrockko on July 27, 2010
Verified Purchase
Review submitted for Garmin nuvi 765T North America City Navigator GPS (GRNUVI765T)
Pros: Easy Menus, Simple Controls, Compact, Easy To Set Up, Reliable Performance, Acquires Satellites Quickly
Cons: Pay for map updates
Other Comments: I have the BMW 765 as well and both are great machines. Easy menu's, and I love the lane assist because I do not drive busy highways often, so this is a very good feature for me. The traffic feature is a great extra feature as well. The icon is easy to understand and you can menu further into traffic issues very easily. My only issue is the price to update the maps, that is a complete scam from Garmin, did I not pay enough to purchase? I have like $700 tied up in two GPS's I support Garmin products, and they want MORE money. But, still a great tool.

2 out of 5 stars   Looks Good on Paper, Very Bad in Reality
By TShadow61 on July 22, 2010
Review submitted for Garmin nuvi 765T North America City Navigator GPS (GRNUVI765T)
Pros: Great Features, Large Screen, Easy Menus, Easy To Read
Cons: Unreliable, Acquires Satellites Slowly, Freezes Up, Inaccurate Touch Screen, Short Battery Life, Volume not adequate
Other Comments: I purchased my 765T in January and have had nothing but problems ever since. I have now been fighting with Garmin for 2 straight months over the issue of the unit freezing frequently. I have received 2 different replacement units and my power cord/traffic receiver went out. Their customer service is horrible and this model clearly has some bugs they need to work out. I am now requesting a full refund on my purchase. It's a shame. I was really excited about the features this model offered. It's just not worth the money I spend or the trouble I've had.

1 out of 5 stars   Not very reliable
By Health care worker on July 22, 2010
Verified Purchase
Review submitted for Garmin nuvi 765T North America City Navigator GPS (GRNUVI765T)
Pros: Easy Menus, Easy To Read, Easy To Set Up, Large Screen
Cons: Acquires Satellites Slowly, Inaccurate, Short Battery Life
Other Comments: This is the second Nuvi unit in the past year. I use it daily for my job as a health care worker visiting pateints in their home and need something quick and reliable. This unit is neither. I will not buy another. The batteries drain quickly, unit gives inaccurate information. I frequently visit same locations weekly or every other week and it will give different directions without cause. I bought it because of the large screen, and easy programing. I will be requesting a RTA shortly.

5 out of 5 stars   Great product
By Borodo on July 08, 2010
Verified Purchase
Review submitted for Garmin nuvi 765T North America City Navigator GPS (GRNUVI765T)
Pros: Acquires Satellites Quickly, Reliable Performance, Simple Controls, Easy To Read, Easy Menus
Cons:
Other Comments: The only setback of my Nuvi 765T is that I can never use lane asssitance. Lane assistance was one of the features than made me purchase this unit, and later I learned through a newsgroup that Garmin has lane assistance only for selected cities. On the other side this is a great and affordable navigator and comes with a lifetime traffic subscription.

4 out of 5 stars   Easy to use right out of the box.
By Traveling Jack on July 07, 2010
Verified Purchase
Review submitted for Garmin nuvi 765T North America City Navigator GPS (GRNUVI765T)
Pros: Easy To Read, Simple Controls, Large Screen, Easy Menus, Reliable Performance, Acquires Satellites Quickly, Compact, Easy To Set Up
Cons: Short Battery Life
Other Comments: I have to travel alone to large cities frequently and find Mapquest confusing sometimes and hard to follow. I bought this model after reading Consumer Reports article on GPS units. I must say they steered me in the right direction. This is not the expensive model with all the bells and whistles but it gets me where I want to go. I like that it posts the speed limit on the display so I can tell instantly if I am within the legal limit. It also displays the direction of my next turn so there are no surprises.

5 out of 5 stars   Nuvi 765T
By Safetyman on June 28, 2010
Verified Purchase
Review submitted for Garmin nuvi 765T North America City Navigator GPS (GRNUVI765T)
Pros: Easy Menus, Acquires Satellites Quickly, Simple Controls, Reliable Performance, Easy To Read, Large Screen, Easy To Set Up, Compact
Cons:
Other Comments: This is a great all around GPS. It has everything you need and more. I looked at all of them and this one has the best combination of features like - BlueTooth to connect to your cell phone - Route planning for sorting out up to 10 destinations - It shows the speed limit of the particular road you are on - Lane guidance for those 4, 6 and 8 lanes in citys. The 3D building view and the lifetime traffic is just a plus. Very up to date maps - Overall this is the best GSP of any brand for the price.
