Uniden TRAX 5000 GPS unit

With one of the largest screens we've seen on a GPS device, Uniden's TRAX 5000 certainly looks appealing at first glance. Also boasting advanced lane ...

Uniden Trax 5000

The Trax 5000 is not without its faults but its size and legibility make a compelling case.

Max inches, minimum dollars. New interface simple to use. Clean map screen. Aussie and NZ maps.

Text-to-speech mispronounces "road" as "rod". QWERTY keyboard AWOL. No audio alerts for cameras. 3D landmarks and cityscapes distracting.

The Trax 5000 is not without its faults, but its size and legibility make a compelling case.

Everything. Poor Quality. Slow map changes and VERY inaccurate mapping.
