They suggested that I do a reset by turning your gps off then turning it back on while applying pressure on the lower right hand of the screen.
My T does the same blasted thing. It wants to route me on secondary roads with traffic lights instead of taking the major interstate Long Island Expressway or parkway. My C has no trouble sending me on a major highway. I reset the device once and nothing changed. Now I use a custom route, created with Mapsource, to route me. In those cases, I only use the GPS for traffic avoidance. The Nuvi's definitely have odd routing behavior compared to the older StreetPilot's. I actually prefer my C's routing.
Did you by any chance enable eco-route? It refuses to select roads with speeds above 50 MPH. The T does the same thing, your crusing at 70 mile an hour on the highway, no traffic and it tells you to exit down a street with 20 traffic lights to get to the other Highway instead of staying on the road and picking up the other highway at the connector at 70 miles an hour.
I had that same problem a while back and after several crazy attempts to correct the problem I noticed that it was giving me an unbelie4vable amount of time to get from point A to point B. I discovered that one of my "friends" had changed my vehicle from a car to bicycle. Check that out to see if you have the same thing.
Just an idea. I thought it would be nice to warn some of you, who may be thinking about trying this solution. If you, do not only will it re-set the Nuvi but, it will erase any saved addresses, or favorites, as well! My daughter just found out the hard way. My daughter just found out the hard way Next time have your daughter read this first.
I came here to post the answer, since this is one of the forums I first came to for answers, and I saw none here. Thanks so much for your information that you posted on here - I am an EMT in a decent sized city and depend on my GPS to get me there fast! We respond to calls Yes we use a map book, but 10 out of 10 times, I can find the address and get us there faster then my paramedic partner who uses the map book, every time.
I just got a new Garmin and was horrified when it would not take freeways, highways, interstates AT ALL, and we had to go back to map books, everyone was quite upset about that. They had started to rely on my GPS!! Even did the emergency vehicle and avoid highways trick, didnt work. It uses the best routes for every situation, never fails!
It uses our tried and true methods on how to get to hospitals using short cuts even - if its faster! Its like my little Garmin all of a sudden grew a brain!! I had to go in and set up a vehicle profile, telling it what my MPG is, I used unleaded gas and just threw in a random price for gas - but most of all, it needs that fuel difference for MPG and it will pick the right route every single time!!
Thank you again MOE for being a leader and blazing the path for us! Currently using a c, wouldn't even think of switching to a nuvi. If it breaks, I'll just get another one until they no longer exist After that I'll go back to the old school method of traveling. That's how I feel about my Simple and it just works. Never had a problem with it picking the highways, at least not that much of a convoluted procedure.
I noticed my would direct me to work by way of surface streets, which I thought was foolish but it directs me back home by way of the freeway. I guess it knows I am in no hurry to get there but hurry up on the way home.
Heck, I don't know! Take care! M I have just tried this in simulation mode using different addressees and destinations and it seems to pick better routes via the highways. Its choosing routes I would use. My current settings are 15mpg city and 40mpg highway. Avoidances is set to Disabled everything is unchecked. Should be interesting. M I have a Garmin and you say 15 mpg city and 40 highway,I did that did the best fuel,but I can't do both best fuel and fastest unless you ment changing these items would take you the fastest route.
Back when I got my Nuvi , I did a side-by-side test with a c on a round trip of roughly miles. Both units routed identically - there was very little difference between the function of the two other than speaking street names and a second or so in response time. And nearly all the driving was on interstates. Driving between two to three hundred miles a day to various addresses using the setting provided by MKGill and Mow work.
I have noticed routes that make more sense to me on both city streets and highway routes. Thank you! I'm not sure driving on major freeways here in California is all that smart. Their current state of decay, might rate them as an off road experience. I'll have to try the suggestion on fooling the Eco trip but wouldn't it be nice if Garmin would just add "Most use of Interstates" and "Major Highways" to the preferences?
Same results here. No selection on for both. Like some TomTom models, the DriveSmart 55 and its larger sibling, the DriveSmart 65 also now include 3D mapping; in some major cities, it shows familiar buildings and landmarks as recognizable 3D images, which can help you more easily orient yourself with your surroundings in an unfamiliar area.
This made us more aware of those unexpected changes where police often like to park themselves with radar guns. Each alert is accompanied by a small icon, which pops up in the lower left corner of the screen, and a soft chime, which you can turn off individually for each type of alert. The feature is particularly convenient while driving, because, by default to reduce driver distraction, Garmin blocks you from inputting destinations or changing settings on the screen while the car is moving.
Repeating the same destination in Google Maps resulted in nearly instant directions. The DriveSmart 55 provides traffic alerts along your route using data from the Here traffic network, which is updated roughly every five minutes via an FM radio signal.
Alerts pop up on the screen and are accompanied by spoken warnings for example, that traffic is causing a five-minute delay along your route. However, traffic alerts are available only on interstates and other major highways near major metro areas. Connecting the DriveSmart 55 to the Drive app adds features in other areas, as well.
We could input a destination on our phone, press Go, and then have the navigator instantly calculate a route to it, which is very convenient. You can also get weather updates, see nearby parking prices and locations provided through Parkopedia in many US cities, and view live traffic-camera images. If having comprehensive traffic data is important to you, we recommend using a smartphone instead of a GPS navigator.
You can also download maps of other countries from the Garmin website or order them on SD cards, but they can be pricey. The TomTom Go , with free lifetime access to world maps, is a good alternative if you want a GPS device that you can easily use in countries outside of North America. It also comes with a handy powered magnetic mount that lets you easily attach the TomTom to the windshield and remove it without having to mess with connecting and disconnecting a power cord each time.
TomTom says that you can use Siri and Google Assistant through the Go , but when we tried it with our Android test phone our directions came through in Google Maps on our phone. It provides the same reliable directions, intuitive user interface, extensive points-of-interest database, and helpful driver alerts for a lower price. The Drive 52 comes with free lifetime map updates, which include the US, Canada, and the same Caribbean locales as the 55, but not Mexico.
If the DriveAssist detects a crash it automatically saves the video and can send a text message and map link to a preselected contact. But if you want the functionality of both devices in one body, this is still worth considering. The TomTom Via series is a selection of lower-priced navigators with resistive screens; maps of the US, Canada, and Mexico; and free lifetime map updates.
As you approach your next turn, a green perimeter light starts illuminating at the bottom of the display and gradually rises up the sides, completing a circle at the top just as you reach your turn. However, unlike other units, the Speak needs to be paired with a compatible iPhone or Android smartphone via Bluetooth to function at all. The Klashwerks Raven is a multi-function device that combines a dashcam with navigation, security, and vehicle tracking.
