This is a nice older unit, had it for years. Touchpad on screen doesn't work well anymore, but with remote is functional.

The Garmin 2620 works well, but car adapter is broken after 11 months. Car adapters for 2610, 2620, 2720, etc have the same problems

When the unit is working, it is a 4-5 star unit. I received my first 2620 for Mother's Day 2 years ago. I live in Fl and have traveled all over FL, Hawaii, Alaska, NY, Canada, Washington, PA, and most of the east coast states. There were road updates and many points of interest that were out of date but overall this system, we named Betty, has been a life saver. Before the warranty expired in the first year, "Betty" would continue to recycle the boot up screen.

After just a mere year of owning my Garmin 2620 and probably less than 20 effective uses of it I am completely dissapointed on it's reliability, paid over 800 USD for it in Amazon when it was their latest model, took care of it like any other electronic device (didn't drop it or splash it with liquid), one day while using it the screen went completely blue, did everything mentioned on the users manual, garmin's knowledge base and even contacted their customer service trying to get my gadget back ...

Pros:
Got me where I need to go vast majority of time
Good route options - e.g. city, non-toll road, etc
Detour - invaluable
Cons:
Power adapter which would reboot unit with the slightest touch
System would continue to say "recalculating" if you missed a turn - a bit annoying after a while
Bulky - not practical to remove from vehicle all the time
