We just bought new vehicals for our business I got a Ford Explorer (has Double din dash) and my partner got a F150 crew cab (Also double din dash)
We currentlly have Garmin street pilot 2620's and are verry happy with them
(they are well over 3 years old now out of warranty and getting a little flakey)
Has anyone with experience with the 2620 "upgraded" to the Z-1?
What are your impressions?
Is Nav traffic helpful ?
Is the Z-1 as accurate as the 2620?
One thing i dont like about the garmin is the address entry. Can I "speak" full addresses into the Z-1? Dose it work?
We use GPS every day all day to run service calls
I listen to AM radio all day as well (KMOX Junkie) I have a XM subscription but really only use it on family trips.
For those family trips I have a portable DVD player for the kids but I also have a couple of headrest monitors that I never installed so the indash DVD player would be nice and save some space
My partner is a Sirius junky listens to the NFL network all day. I really want to get a couple of these things but if the GPS is in any way inferior to the Garmin I'm not interested
Thoughts anyone??

My experiences between the 2 I'd take the z1 just because of the larger display. The garmin sometimes I had problems seeing the screen when the sun was glaring on it.

have you noticed any difference in the accuricy of the Z-1?
I herd the GPS isn't close to the garmin but it was only one post.

I have the d1, but as far as accuracy goes I've not noticed any differences. The avic will tell you you're at your destination a bit earlier than the garmin would but I don't find that to be a big deal.

Thanks for the reply

I demoed a unit and put in two addresses my home (Been there for 50 years) and another business address that has been around longer, both were a no go. Dose anyone know what map set the Z-1 uses?
