Comment:
I tried to go from Cleveland to Philadelphia - Unit kept telling me to exit the turnpike. Said my travel time was 9HRS. Finally, the unit figured out where I was going - after the 236MP on the PA Turnpike - My travel time was reduced from a total of 9HRS to 6.5HRS<br /><br />I tried changing the routing - it really did not make that much of a difference. <br /><br />Now that being said, the unit is good in downtown traffic - when you have no idea where you are and you need help. <br /><br />One of the things that I do not like is that it will announce your arrival... Sometimes it will say, you have arrived at your destination .. on right/on left and sometimes it just says, you have arrived at your destination

This unit is a piece of garbage. 3 days after I bought it, a software glitch locked it up. Resetting it according to the owners manual does not work. It is now a [$] paperweight. Last garmin product I'll ever buy.

Comment:
The 1350 has been a good GPS unit and I've been using it for about 18 months. I use it for both long trips and locally. The traffic receiver has been a big help on the longer trips, just wish it provided more information on why it was choosing a specific route or changing a route. Start up was much faster on this unit then the NUVI 750 I previously used. The 2012 map update (US, Mexico, and Canada) was too large to fit in memory, requiring me choose what portion of the maps not to install. While I would recommend this unit to a friend, I would probably also recommed getting a current year model if it fits in your budget.
