good general GPS cheaply made
2455LMT does live traffic via its radio receiver and lifetime maps. This is my 4th unit.
Pros
Easy to use, when it works
clear simple screens
software for upgrade works well
easy to repair, just remove 4 screws and you are in to the guts
memory card extends its life but delay getting new maps to once a year see cons
Cons
routing away from highways to backways sometimes is done without the users knowledge, if the Garmin sees traffic via the radio, it will route away from it, even if the traffic is not so severe, YELLOW
upgrading takes a long time, about 1 hr, no matter how fast your connect speed is, and as the maps get bigger the unit responds slower
radio traffic is less accurate than google maps, but otherwise fine
Cheaply made, compared to older Garmin models, but most all new GPS units are
the USB port is easily broken and has to be repaired in many units, this is my 4th, I buy low cost units to use for spares, just resolder all its connections and it will be fine, screen is just snap in replacement
the touch screen is fragile, so get a hard case to store it in when not in use, or in a bag anything pressing on the screen hard can crack it
