Garmin nüvi 265/265T 3.5-Inch Bluetooth Portable GPS Navigator with Traffic Review
I would consider this GPS an excellent buy. It's very easy to setup and use. The bluetooth works well and I would say the sound quality is good. This is also a good safety feature and is probably worth the cost of purchase by itself. There is only one negative thing I can say about it; I have seen it a couple times, in rural areas, tell you to turn left and the purple direction of travel line would be pointing right. The direction line has always been correct, so it is a good idea to check both.

Easy to use. Extremely helpful on recent cross country trip from CA to NY.
Nuvi 265T great so far!! - D. McGown - West Virginia, USA
This model has been great. The map accuracy has been spot-on. The traffic alerts have been accurate as well and helped to avoid traffic delays in areas. The fact that the 265T is portable and can be used while walking or biking to find attractions is also a great benefit. No problems to date and we are very happy with our purchase !!Garmin nüvi 265/265T 3.5-Inch Bluetooth Portable GPS Navigator with Traffic

We bought this for my son who is a new driver. He loves the Bluetooth, hands free feature since he drives a standard and can still take calls.
