- I would like to start out that I have used Garmin GPS\'s in there various incarnations for nearly 30 years. I purchased the Tread for both on & off road use. The 1st thing I did upon receipt of the unit was to connect it to the computer and run any updates, well it does not like to update via usb but it does like to update via wifi so just a heads up, the initial updates did not take long less than 1 hour. The 2nd thing I did was try it with a GTM-60 traffic receiver I already have that is used with other models, according to the compatibility list it is not compatible, but I noticed the \"overlander\" was compatible which is the same OS as the Tread and sure enough when i plugged it in it did a little firmware update to the GTM-60 and it works great as noted in my photo it gets digital updates where they are provided (digital is not broadcast in all city\'s). Functionally it has a lot of features some of which I may never use but they are there if you need them. The search function works great, you no longer have to search by city/state/etc to find many things you just put what you want in search and bam there it is. Out of the box it has a lot of boundary lines enabled for everything A~Z so much that it can make the map just a bit too much you may have a hard time determining what is a property boundary line and what is a trail or road or street so I turned some of the boundary markers off to make it more suitable to my needs. Some of those markers are useful for off-road ONLY, when I am in the city I don\'t need to see joe smo\'s property lines. The OS is nice you will get a single tone alert for upcoming speed limit changes, a detail will come up on the right side showing the next street/exit, etc and how far away it is and by this I mean it will show them purely as information and not necessarily as your next turn if navigating I like the feature. OFF-Road mapping is \"ok\" there are some places I have gone to and have driven and the mapping is just not in the data, that\'s not a defect of the device it\'s a mapping issue and should be expected to a certain degree depending on where you travel. Birds eye view is \"interesting\" if you download the birds eye it literally shows a birds eye view which includes just trees and no road if the road is under the tree canopy there is no overlay for the road on the map in that case. Accuracy is the reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5, accuracy is pretty good most of the time but there was a couple cases of it \"drifting\" a bit maybe a few hundred feet at most not sure why, could be the satellite was on the edge of the horizon or something. I have traveled with it for a few thousand miles now and have confidence in it for the most part . I purchased a window suction mount separate because it does not come with one, I though it might \"fall off\" the window because it is a little heavy because of the big built in battery but even with some rough off roading it has not fallen off, the colored plastic trim pieces it comes with seem a little janky but it has not been dropped or anything yet when it does I expect the trim piece of pop off like a lego set otherwise it seems sturdy. It has not frozen up or done anything weird as of yet the os seems stable. If you are on the couch about buying one go for it, great gps.
- Three of us bought these units for a 6 day trip around Baja, and they were awesome! The group ride mode made it easy to see where everyone was on the map, and the map search interface was perfect. Even created a route to Mikes Sky Camp from a quick search on the screen. The connection with the phone is seamless as well. Sharing routes via Bluetooth worked great, and the maps are incredible. You can also set it to varying levels of difficulty for off road and on road, and it does great routing as expected. The only feature that is tricky is that you need to push an onscreen button to talk in group mode, and it’s on the right top corner of the screen which made it tough on motorcycles. A push to talk remote for motorcycle riders would’ve been nice. It seems like they are really made for utvs, as there is an included cb style handheld mic/speaker as an option too. I’ve used the garmin Montana for years, but I’ll never go back. This is what I was always looking for.
- States in the listing and on the box free topo maps of north and South AmericaWith free subscription to Birds EyeI was deeply saddened when I tried to use it and it couldn’t connect so I check the birdseye website and it’s been discontinued for about a yearAbsolutely worthless offroad if you cannot see the terrainStill shows trails but it’s just a line no details what so ever
- I go off road a lot in the northern upper peninsula of Michigan. The two track and other roads are not marked the best. Recently, coming home in the dark I would have got back to camp without this GPS but I would have put on a lot of extra miles. My gut was saying to go in one direction but the Garmin Tread said to go in another direction. I went the Garmin direction! I was so glad I had it. Once my gut and the Garmin came into alignment it made sense why the \"all seeing eye\" of the Garmin Tread said to go the way it did!I know the price tag is high. I choked on it as well. But if you can get past the price bring this GPS if for nothing more than the large screen and for the how it connects to other cameras. I no longer need my Garmin 62.Honestly, in the old days I used a Topo map and compass to get around. That system is still relevant but using the Garmin is so much better. For night time driving out in the wilds the Garmin Tread is superior to my Garmin handheld GPS. Do I still keep a compass in my pocket? You bet!
- An expensive system considering all the free map systems you can access online however when your hopping from one area to another it this unit is a great for having preloaded detailed maps. I\'m not a fan of having to download maps all the time. I was a it disappointed that the built in radio was not GMRS or something that had an ability to actually be useful. Basically unless someone else has a Tread with radio its worthless. Does not connect with Apple Air pods.. Bummer..
- The touch screen is flawless! Completely readable in direct sunlight!This garmin, unlike previous ones I own, easy to use and operate. The HD screen is awsome.The tube mount is very strong and stable. One push of a button and its released ready to take with on your GPS hike.Way to go Garmin!
- To me, the screen is the best Garmin has ever produced. This apparently new high-definition screen is much brighter than other Garmin screens and has incredibly good map detail. The only drawback to this GPS is that the unit does not have voice control. That is what brought my rating down and the reason I returned it. I felt the lack of voice control was an efficiency and safety issue. It seems odd that Garmin would not include their excellent and proven voice control technology in this unit. If they did, to me it would be the best GPS ever made. Perhaps they will include that feature in the future.
