Another feature: It tells you the speed limit and your speed. It also acts as a wife and shows your speed in red if you’re going too fast…
I know it’s in the 1490 model, dunno about the 1450 model.

I bought 3 when they were on sale a couple days ago for 159.99. Will Amazon refund the difference?

Now its 155.99. Assuming the 152.99 was not a mistake will they adjust to 155.99 or 152.99?

Well I hope you don’t use still GPS. Just buy an android phone and use their google maps… it is so much better than any gps.

Dan, are Garmin lifetime traffic updates models that much better than models without it (the T at the end..)? I haven’t had the traffic updates model yet.. Thanks!
