I have been using Garmin vehicle GPS for decades. I find using a GPS navigator is superior to using a cell phone. Navigation always works regardless of cell service. Every couple of years the manufacturer updates them, and I generally upgrade every few years. This RV795 was purchased to replace a Drivesmart 51 that is probably 8 years old. I like the bigger screen, and the processor is much faster. Reroutes are quick and searches require fewer steps. You can just say something and the RV795 will search for it without navigating menus. It seems to recognize speech better too. The game changer is the overhead photos of your location making it easier to find a way in or out of a parking lot/campground. The caveat here is that you need the RV795 to be connected to a cell phone for traffic, 4 square, and overhead photos which are downloaded. The Garmin Drive app works well and I use it on a daily basis. The GPS and nav still work, just not all of the extras. After updating the firmware, op software, and maps, it took a while to figure out how to make traffic etc. work. Once connected to the phone using the Drive app, it works well. Like most devices these days expect some work to get everything working. The results are worth it.
I'm transitioning from an over ten year old Magellan RV GPS, and it's amazing how many excellent features this unit has, including very up to date maps. So far I'm very pleased with how well it works.
It has a clear, bright 7" screen. It is about the right size to mount in HUP position above the speedo -- big enough to see and read, but small enough not to obstruct the view too much. Menu tree is different than Rand McNally and needs relearning, but is clear and logical. Like free map %26 S/W updates. It's too new to evaluate its operation and reliability yet. Will update review later.
Bought it 5 months ago we travel with a 34 travel trailer and so far been good not getting us in to bad spot wish easyer to load multiple day trips from google map that works or a gamin trip planner for pc then load to garmin We google map on phone with the garmin
As stated. The gps works great. The one feature that annoys is of course a nanny state thing to protect you from you. EVERY TIME it starts it goes to the screen to pick car or rv. When the unit starts. I want it to go into navigation. Not ask me questions as if I'm an idiot.
Great product for navigation with an RV. Routes around low clearance locations, warns of traffic delays and allows rerouting. Lots of features to choose from. Only downside I could find (so far) is there is a very sharp leaning curve. I thought it was a waste of $459 until I used it daily for a couple weeks on a long distance trip with many stops.
Is not nearly as easy to operate as prior model. Don't like that a selection of “ map views” ie-satellite, driving etc isn't available. Need to select vehicle every time instead of setting it once. Touch screen works intermittently. Display,(Elevation, time to destination etc) needs to be reset everytme unit is restarted..Display changes with bumpy road.
Gave good directions, not easy to link to phone.
I expected a reliable and accurate gps. This unit is neither. On our inaugural RV trip our route was supposed to be south on I-95. As we were approaching the on ramp Garmin instructed us to turn left and head “north” on I-95. There were many instances where Garmin was showing a max speed of 35 mph but the actual posted speed limit was 55. The route planner feature is not easy to use. If you want to change a route section you're supposed to enter two contact points for the route to change. If you don't zoom in you might get routed on to narrow back country roads that an RV has no business being on. I never had confidence that we were on a RV friendly route. For this kind of money I expected a much better product.
Trip on Oklahoma turnpike to Paris Texas it gave a 101 minute delay. Google maps and wayze did not see it. Current trip from pagosa springs to taos new Mexico, it routed through a CLOSED road for construction. Had we trusted Google maps it routed us around so we should have trusted Google maps. Several instances where garmin missed key things like speed changes or other critical things for driving. Attached is pic of upgrade. I tried to cancel but garmin stated maps already deleted so would be unusable. Showed 91 hours but finally finished overnight. Also was challenge uploading routes from rvlife (lucky youtube showed how). GARMIN fix your junk!
