How much do you use your Sat Nav?

[Cider Andy]

I've had this Garmin StreetPilot 2610 for about three years and somehow I've managed to clock up about 75,000 miles with it. The mileage isn't entirely accurate though, as twice it's picked me up from where I was in western France and unceremoniously dumped me in the Atlantic at great speed, hence the maximum speed...



Overall it's an excellent unit and a big improvment on its slower forerunner, the StreetPilot III, which I used previously.

I probably use my tom tom once a week. It's not one of these fancy fangdangled things like yours that counts how miles you've done though. I quite often go for a drive for a couple of hours, get lost and plug the Tom Tom in to get back home

Im glad its not just me that does that then

I use my Tomtom once or twice a fortnight. But it has full euro mapping (USA/Canada now too) so it comes in very useful for trips abroad.

I use TomTom for all non-local journey's, even if I could get to my destination with my eyes closed. It's great for speed-camera reminders, and also for alternative routes. Never realised there were so many roads from the M40 to the A34!!! I've had it since I got the Ibiza in December so clocked up about 20k + a load of business miles in hire cars!

That's quite an impressive top speed too

I use mine for nearly every trip, most of the time just for the traffic messages though.

Use mine every day and couldn't be without it, or wouldn't want to be

For directions to the door, as I sell and for speed traps when I know the way, or wish to divert just for the sake of it!

I have a 2620, which is still better than most new units feature-wise, especially for plotting routes "offline".

However it went mental one day and hasn't been the same since so i had to buy a new unit (Mio)
