Customer Review: Do what it meant to be
Summary: 5 Stars
Just tried my Nuvi250 to Texas State Fair in Dallas. This device did what it meant to be. Bring us to Dallas sound and safe.
There is only one concern about it: do the turning when it ask you to do so. There is several times we make our turn earlier just after we heard "in 0.2mile, turn left". But in fact, you will make the correct turn when it really tell you turn left.
Besides that, it also did warn us for which side of lane we had to keep when comes to separate lane. POI are great, we can search all the thing we need all the way.
This unit come with a 2008 map, but you can update your map to 2009 map free online by the time you register it with Garmin.
If I need to complain, it is when it almost reach the destination, I had to shut it down or else it will always try to reroute and reconstruct us to go to the exact point. Although the map is the latest, but due to the reconstruction of I-10 in Houston, this machine mistakenly thought we are off the highway. This is not exactly a con, just that the road changes too fast.
By the end, I never regret to buy this thing. Only thing I dislike is, Garmin never include a wall plug adaptor and a USB connector in the package. It took more more money to buy those utilities. One approach I am doing is to buy a Ac wall plug to car 12V DC cigar socket adaptor. That device cost me 4USD while the AC wall plug adaptor will cost 14USD. So choose the cheaper way.
