Not as good as the Garmin drive 50
on June 22, 2025
Posted by: Rich33
I bought this upgraded model thinking they'd be improvements from the old Garmin drive but I am disappointed. The maps do not populate properly the image for my car doesn't always set on the line and the face image rotates a little bit back and forth as I drive along the highway. I've called Garmin and they've told me to reset the maps but that does not help. FYI be aware of this problem with Garmen.

Garmin Drive Replacement - Nice Upgrade
on June 30, 2025
Posted by: Ray - NY
Purchased a few weeks ago to replace a 10 year + garmin. The 53 and Traffic unit is the same size Garmin as my previous unit, but the screen brightness is not quite as good. During the day to avoid the sun glare, I place on night screen and that helps. It is a little different to search for address, but after a couple tries it works fine.
