Re- Post from General forum
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??
