Nuvi 250 Mexico; lousy Mexico maps, no U.S. maps at all:
Amazon says that the Nuvi 250 Mexico comes with both U.S. and Mexico maps; it does not have any U.S. maps at all. The maps of Mexico, Tampico comes to mind, are terrible. We were routed the wrong way down one way streets, and sent through the docks. No toll roads were ever chosen, although they could have avoided major delays. I assume that the other Garmin products use these Mexico maps so watch out, they are awful.
Great product:
Bought this for my husband for Christmas and he has been very happy with it's use. The only thing he would have liked (which is included in the step above this model) is for the names of the streets to be spoken. Other than that, he is happy with all the features. All our friends seem to prefer the Garmin by far.
Excellent GPS Works Very well:
I got this for my brother. He loves it and I tried it once. It is easy to use and give great directions. If you want it to actually say street names instead of just turn here, then you need to get a more expensive model.
I like it:
It is easy to use although I have a few questions and there is not a manual and I did not see a way to get answers at their website. For the most part I really do like it a lot. Bonnie Benson
