I have a Garmin 750 Nuvi with the 2009 maps loaded. I does not cover Hadley, Hemingway or Amelia. This is the newer areas of TV.

I also have to enter Lady Lake and not TV when searching. Another thing I had to change was my route options. I wanted to go to SS and it took me across 466 to 27/441 and then north when there are shorter routes.

Have you tried to upgrade your maps if possible. Garmin get there map information from Navteq as do a number of other GPS companies. With the never ending growth of TV is is hard to keep up to date on all the new streets.

I am glad I have the Nuvi with me. I am new to TV and will only be here for a month. There is no way I could get around TV without it. I have only been here 2 days and without the GPS I would still be looking for the house.
