[8.7 x 6 x 3.5"] Dealing with B&H has always been a good experience, this time was the same quality service and delivery I am accustomed to. 5

[Color LCD] I have an older Garmin GPS that needs foil tape to retain the sim card. The new GPS 66 is faster, and more readable than the old one, plus has voice listening capability. So we really like the new GPS 5

[60 Minutes] I've been using Garmin GPS units for a long time. This one replaced a much older Garmin GPS that passed away recently. It works great in my Subaru Crosstrek, which did not come with advanced features of any kind, as I was too cheap to pay for them. Nice big screen, fast response and refresh - overall, a good GPS. 5

Pejman	09/07/2024
[Yes] Just like other Garmin devices, their GPS Navigation System works perfect so far. Love how I can move it from one Car to another. 5

SofaBob	05/07/2024
[Yes] The added locations are useful and even better is the ease of using voice commands. It may not be completely intuitive, but it sure is better than anything up til now. Garmin has done a wonderful job with the display, options for travel and giving meaningful verbal directions. When a major update seemed to crash the system, support was easily available which is rarely the case these days. Better yet was their willingness to stick with the issue right up to replacing the unit for me. So that's a good product with good support at a good price. 5

[Color LCD] Very pleased with this version of Garmin. Large, clear screen. I like the feature on the right side that shows upcoming towns, with icons showing whether food, gas or lodging is available! 5

[8.7 x 6 x 3.5"] Have been using Garmin auto GPS for many years. The 66 & 86 have kept all of the past good features; and added more. Highly recommend ! 5

[1.545 lb] This is a wonderful GPS. I am so glad I bought it. I really like it and it worked without a hitch. 5

Just Mie	24/05/2024
[1.545 lb] Coming from a Nuvi 2460 this GPS does so much more. It's like night and day. There are a couple of things that confuse me and at this point being I just bought it and used it for one out of state trip so far i'm not sure if it's a user issue or the way this unit is supposed to operate. I noticed a couple of the routes it directed me to go were out of the way compared to my cell phone app that I would normally use and the concerned me. The other thing I have yet to figure out is listening to music and getting the directions through my cars audio system. Usually I can have Spotify going and my cell phone GPS app will interrupt the music with directions when necessary and then the music will continue. So far I haven't had that happen. I thought it operates both like my cell phone app does. I thought I can pair the Garmin with my vehicle and not have to depend on a cell phone to do it. In any event I hope it's something that I haven't figured out yet because if it's the way it is supposed to operate it will lessen my likability somewhat. 5
