Customer Rating:      Summary: Very Good NAV Unit For The Price Comment: Garmin Streetpilot c550 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator
I was first exposed to this unit when I rented it with a car on my trip to San Diego, CA. No instructions were included so it was plug in, push "Where To?", and follow the simple, easy instructions. I also connected my cellphone to the Bluetooth feature in a very few easy steps. Piece of cake!!
The sound from the speakers was ok, understandable but a little tinny.
The map display was readable even in the desert sun on I15 east heading
towards Las Vegas.
When I returned from my trip, I promptly ordered one. Although I have a NAV system and Bluetooth in one car, our other car does not so it is used for both purposes in that vehicle.
I also will have it for use when I rent a car again and I wont have to pay $12 to $14 a day for NAV rental.
Very good price and easy to use.
I had an issue with a free updated 2009 map download and tech support was able to help resolve the issue.
I do recommend the dash mount as it is illegal to mount this unit on a windshield in CA. Must have something to do with radar detectors, I believe.
Customer Rating:      Summary: C550 Review Comment: Pricing was great. Product functioned very well, as designed. An abundance of features for the price. Hands free speakerphone was a pleasant surprise. Incoming calls ring in the GPS, giving you the option to answer and talk back. The screens are easy to follow. The bluetooth directory is a another great feature. The unit speaks the name of the street so you don't have to take your eys of the road. Just a reminder that no MAPS are perfect and neither is routing. Sometimes seemed to route the long way around. Might require some settings tuning for best inner city routes. All and all, a great value.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Love the Garmin!!! Comment: This is my second Garmin since they are so user friendly and anyone can use them, I have stayed loyal to the brand. I purchased this second one for my husband who now uses it to go everywhere. I should mention he has a GPS built into his cars and prefers to use only the Garmin.

Customer Rating:      Summary: Garmin c550 Comment: Fantastic price!!! Great product. I haven't had any problems and I use this GPS every day.
