I second the thought that it's a life saver on trips to foreign/unfamiliar places. You would think I was a local by the way I was taking side roads to get to where we were going. That's why I stress so much on the "recalculation" feature...

Often times, when I hit freeway traffic in Hawaii, I would take my nearest exit, and not the "pre-planned" route suggested by the Nuvi. Sure enough, the Nuvi is pluggin' away trying to figure out your next "move."

We'll be island hopping this trip so it'll come in handy not just in Oahu, but also in Hilo and Maui!
