NUVI 660 PERSONAL TRAVEL GPS

 

Great performance. Stored locations of a wide variety of points of interest from stores to gas stations and hospitals

No real cons I've run across on the one trip I've used the Garmin on. Don't know how widely the Traffic alert capability is available ; was only active in the Baltimore / Washington DC area - but was helpful and modified the route around the problem areas

NUVI 660 PERSONAL TRAVEL GPS

 

I have enjoyed using it even when traveling familiar routes, for the travel measures and traffic alerts.

Large screen is easy to read Traffic alerts have been very helpful

Has had some very strange directions at times, similar to Mapquest...Is that what they use? Street names are sometimes not up to date.

NUVI 660 PERSONAL TRAVEL GPS

 

I am satisfied with the unit, it gets me to my locations with ease, even tells me which side of the street my address is. I have no regret buying this unit. I'm yet to explore other benefits it has to offer.

Bright screen .User friendly interface .Acquired satellite within seconds .Clear announcement of direction .Accurate routing

My cell(Nokia 6620) works with the blue tooth, but could not download contacts. The batteries runs low easily, needs to plug it in at all times to avoid dissappointment.

NUVI 660 PERSONAL TRAVEL GPS

 

I liked nuvi 750 or 760 model since those has internal receiver, so I don't have to pull it out when the GPS is used. However, 660 is cheaper than 760 and has more functions such as bluetooth compare to 750 and, especially, with 660 they provide power...

accurate, reliable, more POI info compare to other GPS products.

design could be better. ex. colors.

NUVI 660 PERSONAL TRAVEL GPS

 

Generally very happy with the unit. It seems to do a very good job in local navigation. I've experienced similar issues as others on the highway where it will detour to much longer indirect routes. In addition I'd like to see a computer interface...

Look and feel are great. Satalite aquisition is quick, tracking seems to be accurate, mounting accessories are very effective, unit is very easy to use.

I've experienced the same issue as others where the unit will occasionally pick a route that makes no sense. Not sure about flip up antenna. have to change screen to get trip stats. No computer interface.

NUVI 660 PERSONAL TRAVEL GPS

 

Pretty easy to set up and use. My wife is using it so it has to be easy has she doesn't have a technical bone in her body.

Seems to be a good item. Our home doesn't show up but we have the same problem with Mapquest. It does show in the Tom Tom basic our son has. We haven't had it long but are pleased.

No major cons.

NUVI 660 PERSONAL TRAVEL GPS

 

I think tha this is the best of the 3 GPS devices that I have owned. I want a GPS. I do not want it to be a phone, or picture frame or read me books when I drive. I just want a good GPS and this Nuvi 660 it the very best unit that can be had.

I bought a Garmin Street Pilot C330 It was wonderful, but because I have cataracts I needed a larger screen, and it had to be visible in the day time glare. I also wanted the street that you turn on announced. I did not care for any of the features of...

I wish that it had more than the 1 female voice. I wish that the speaker could be louder. I wish that the case had a belt loop, so I had a shoemaker make one for me.
