Default Re: GPS

All depends on how recent the maps are in the GPS. I have Garmin City Navigator Vers. 8.0 (© 2006) installed and it still takes me up Buena Vista to SR 42 but doesn't know how to navigate a "round about" (traffic circle) that was built in 1998 near Springdale. I live north of CR 466 and from Wildwood, my GPS can't find the way home. The roads south of CR 466 are pretty much not mapped very well yet by NAVTEQ. Even the latest $5 Villages Map has some errors. Do what women do - stop and ask directions!

Short answer: NO!
