Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
A great GPS that is easy to use. I am in outside sales and do not know how I got on without one...Has already paid for itself in getting to my clients very quickly.
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
Tends to use the fastest route which could be the backroads or more scenic route rather than the main highways which could be longer.

Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
Is Great when you are not familiar with area you are going to. We even took it when we flew somewhere and were renting a car.
from Plymouth, MI on 6/4/2009
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
We had a previous Garmin Nuvi with flip-up antenna that acquired satellites much faster. This one can take several minutes at times, especially if you turn it off and move a significant distance. Also gets confused sometimes between parallel roads, such as freeway access road vs. freeway. Especially like the option to broadcast directions and MP3 over the car radio.

The item came with all the adapters necessary to get started.
from Manton, MI on 6/3/2009
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
Works great. Took a little bit to learn how to enter addresses since this was my first GPS. I've been thru several states and it has never let me down getting me to my destinations even when I missed a turn it got me back on course pronto!

Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
Great for timing your trip, accurate with views of things you are passing or coming up on within a short distance.
from Longview,Tx on 6/2/2009
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
We love to find the diners on the Diners,Drive-ins & Dives from the Food Network.It is really great finding them on the Garmin. This is my 2nd Garmin. My first was the least expensive and did not have some of the features on this model.
It is very easy to learn to operate! I also love the directions that tell you which lane to stay in when traveling thru cities on the interstate.
A real must
from Columbus, Ohio on 6/2/2009
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
Used it to navigate from Ohio to Georgia. The FM transmitter is weak, so the audio sent through the car stereo is VERY static.
The audio from the device itself is very weak and distorts when the volume is turned up.
I can't save a route preference (say I want to go a certain route instead of what the device finds -not a waypoint). If I turn the device off and then resume the route, I have to set the preference all over again.
What's good about it? The power cord is long enough and the suction cup sticks to the winshield really well...
I bought the device because I thought it was cheaper and more convenient than getting optional factory GPS with my new vehicle. Not true. My spouse's car is 4 years old and has factory GPS that is more accurate, user friendly and faster than this product. I should have opted for factory GPS...
from Northwest Ohio on 6/2/2009
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
This was my first experience with a GPS unit. Set up was quick and easy. Menus are simple to use. The spoken directions are easy to follow. The only con is that the adhesive disc mount doesn't stick to my dash very well. Overall, this is a great product. I would highly recommend it to anyone considering a GPS navigator.

basic but helpful
from indianapolis, in on 6/2/2009
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
very convenient, especially for long trips. better than having to get on internet and print out pages of directions!
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
Whenever we are out of town, our "Niki" is with us. We have programmed many trips. Sometimes we mute Niki, but still have her screen to look at. Wish we had purchased a navigation device much earlier. Love the way she zeros in on an address. It's easy to enter the data for where we want to go.
from Grand Rapids, MI on 6/2/2009
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
This GPS is great to help find a location when you know the address. Going to Chicago Museum it was a great help to get around construction. Not as helpful if you aren't sure of exactly where you are going (looking for a visitor center in a town not familiar with) but overall it is very helpful.
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
Very easy to use. It doesn't take long to load.

from Madison, WI on 6/2/2009
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
I purchased this product while I was planning a trip from Madison, WI to Washington, D.C. I was going to be driving alone and straight through - stopping only for fuel and food. My Garmin made this trip as seamless as possible. It was incredibly accurate in the location of gas stations and exits while driving. While sightseeing in D.C. I used the Garmin in pedestrian mode and was never lost. While walking the National Mall I was able to use the Garmin's Points of Interest to ensure I did not miss anything that I wanted to see. Traveling back home, I switched the Garmin to avoid tollways; though a bit slower traveling I didn't have to pay the $30 in tolls that I accrued on the first leg of the trip. Since returning home to Madison I have used the Garmin in Northern Wisconsin and have continued to have no issues in getting to where I need to go. I also have purchased an 8GB SD Card to store and listen to music using the Internal FM Transmitter which is another feature of this Garmin. The Garmin does take a little bit of time to load all 8GB of music but that's only due to the fact that music/media is not it's primary function. If I'm using the Garmin in Pedestrian Mode I can also listen to music with earbuds (as there is also a headphone jack) or without (using the small internal speaker). I have had absolutely no qualms about this product and have actually recommended it - or other Garmin products - to friends who are in the market.
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
When I'm going to unfamiliar places like the City of Detroit, The nuvi makes me so much more relaxed! If there is a detour regardless of where I'm traveling, nuvi re-calculates the route! No more panicking with a "set-in-stone" computer printed paper route! I also love it that the nuvi tells the estimated arrival time, speed limit and can tell you where the nearest gas station is! This is like my cell phone has become, Indispensable!
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
I bought this for my son who's a truck driver. He loves it!
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
I use the 750 to find hard to find places
It is very useful in speed control, ETA, miles traveled ect.
the voice sometimes gets on my wrong side
from Springfield, Ohio on 6/1/2009
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
The only negative that I have is that the suction cup mount sometimes comes undone.

Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
Product is excellent, exactly what was described. We have only had one issue ... voice programming gets deleted, and I have to update software on occasion.
from Livonia, MI on 6/1/2009
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
Purchased this as a gift for my son who is away at school. He absolutely loves it and doesn't go anywhere without it. He especially likes how it tells him how long it'll take to get to his destination and finding points of interest (restaurants, etc.) along his route and once he reaches his destination. On the downside, it is a bit bulky. My daughter's Garmin is a different model and she can slip it in her pocket, whereas my son's 750 is more the size of a camera. The price, though, couldn't be beat.
from Marne, Michigan on 6/1/2009
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
If I find myself in an area that I know slightly and make a direction change, the Garmin quickly recalculates my route. It is up to date with construction - important in Michigan during "construction season". If also gives me enough lead time for turns and gets me in the correct lanes for entrances/exits that I am unfamiliar with so I don't get caught having to change lanes at the last minute. I am feeling very comfortable about an upcoming trip and relying on the Garmin.

Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
I use this product to help me find places I don't know how to get to.
It is so easy to use. Gets me where I need to go.
Problem I have with it is that if the address is say like a Co Road 39, I have not found a way to put that address in.

Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:

from East Lansing, mi on 6/1/2009
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
I had a off brand GPS and was not satisfied with it, so I purchased the Carmin Nuvi 750 as it was on sale. When I took a trip to Las Vegas from Michigan I compared the two. Iwas very pleased with the Carmin over the off brand.It was simple to use and understand it's Information that it gives you.

from Sunbury, Ohio 43074 on 6/1/2009
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
I think overall it is a good piece of equipment.
It should be known that since day-one it has, on several occasions, suffered "voice break-up" that I find very irritating.
Other than that, it has been reliable.
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
It does seem to acquire the satellites a little slow but usually worth the wait.

from Grand Rapids, MI on 6/1/2009
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
I use my Garmin mainly for finding city and local addresses. I recently planned a trip to DC so entered some addresses we will visit in my 'favorites'. It helped me find those addresses too. I love how it tells you the arrival time and speed of the highway you are on. It shows what street you are approaching and gives you a good warning when you need to turn and lets you know ahead of time if it is left or right. It will even simulate the trip for you! Sometimes at night I can't read the street signs, or in Michigan, they can be covered with snow. I don't have to guess anymore! I love my Garmin better than my PDA!

Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
We used it to navigate on our vacation with no maps(hand held maps) and did not get lost once. It was wonderful! We felt like our drive time was shortened by following the Garmons' directions.
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
I use my GPS for many reasons including local flower delivery, finding businesses and homes I only have the address to, and to entertain kids. They like the estimated time of arrival clock.
from Schaumburg, IL on 6/1/2009
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
This product is wonderful. It acquires satelites quickly and has a newer ability in which it tells you the speed limit for the zone that you are in and it even decreases as the speed limit decreases due to construction or different fluctuations in speed. This product helped me successfully drive from Illinois to southern Florida.
from Mt. Clemens, MI on 6/1/2009
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
I use the Nuvi, to get to estimates for my groundskeeping business, will be purchasing additional units for all my fleet trucks. Recently used it to go on a trip to Indiana that I have many many many times, it took me a different way never thought of and beat my parents back by over 45 minutes. Would not go without it again.
from Saginaw,Mi on 6/1/2009
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
I was able to use this right out of the box.
It has a simple to use touch screen display that guides you through step by step. Only real downfall I found to it is that it does not have a way piont plotter for off-road use.
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
I was expecting it to have the updated 2009 maps and it did not.
from Grand Rapids, Michigan on 4/22/2009
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
When I was looking for a GPS, I didn't want lots of bells and whistles. I wanted something that I could see, hear, understand, and use. This filled my requirements. I love the fact that when I am in an unfamiliar location that I can easily find places to eat or places of recreation. Sometimes it doesn't take me the quickest way, but it gets me there.

Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
This unit is so easy to use. My existing UPS by another manufacturer was slow in acquiring changes in route and not user friendly at all. The Garmin 750 is a "dream". One thing I have observed that it sometimes, in close turn situations, does not give you much "turn notice" but overall is a great unit.

from Birch Run, Mi on 3/20/2009
Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
The Garmin has a good clear voice. that gives you directions not only verbally but visually. It makes it easier to get your bearings. I don't like the way it mounts on the dash and when you mount it on the window it gets in you range of vision.

Bought this Garmin before a trip to North Carolina. Never once had to look at a map. Brought us to exact address - no issues whatsoever. Garmin is used by the USMC so I figured it had to be good.
Would recommend this to anyone.

Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
I have so many pieces of information to handle every day and almost every day I have to be finding new places. Sometimes I just feel lost and have to drive around awhile just to figure out where I am. Not any more with my Garmin nuvi 750. The only negative I've experienced yet is that the verbal directions are sometimes not given fast enough... I am right at the exit when I get that information.

Comments about Garmin nuvi 750 Portable GPS Automobile Navigator:
This is a fabulous product if you are new to an area or if you just need to be able to find addresses without getting on the internet to print a map to the location. When I'm out and don't have a phone book or internet close by, I've used the Garmin to locate a store/restaurant to get the phone number I need. I highly reccomend this!
