My 2nd Garmin Nuvi 260w. Purchased it for another vehicle. Really like that the unit is very easy to operate. Even novices can figure out how to operate it without having a tech person on speed dial. When I purchased my 1st one I didn't realize that it would have a calculator, currency exchange APP., etc., but I welcomed them. As a senior citizen, I would definitely recommend the 260w for anyone who needs a reliable and easy to use GPS.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
Battery lasted pretty long, about ten minutes. Unit acquired satellites in five minutes. Maps cost $50 to update. Next time, I will buy a new unit!

Allready had one. Very easy to use. You get free software updates from Garmin, but map updates do cost $89 for lifetime. Some of the business under points of interest are nolonger in business. I know of two resturants that show local to me that are out of business. That's where I hope the map updates would fix it. The wide screen makes it easy to see. Battery life not so good. About 4 hours.But with a cig outlet and adapter, your good to go. It could be better with a MP3 player and Point of Intereset software and bluetooth technology. Owell
This unit works every time (I now own 3 of this same model). I've paid for the lifetime map upgrades with Garmin.com ($120.00), but otherwise great unit. I use it for work, I drive to people houses all day long, it's very good. I think I may be forgetting how to read maps! There are several free downloads from Garmin.com, including avatars, languages and additional points of interest, and you can upgrade/add additional maps for other countries if you go on vacation. It reads the street names fairly accurately. Wish list; I would like to know what _____(restaurants, gas, etc) are coming up ahead. Currently, if you select what _____ is closest, it gives you a radius, if the closest 10 or 20 ______ are behind you, it's not so helpful. Still, I love having this, I take it everywhere.Read full review
This GPS works great, the screen is a nice size with good resolution, the controls are intuitive and easy to use. The interface is easy to navigate, it could have used a few more on board features like compass/baring, time, ambient temperature etc. but over all i like the product and it performs reliably.
