Rated 5 out of 5 by from The only GPS you will ever need This is a fully featured GPS at a bargain price easy to set up but I recommend installing Garmin Express program on your PC and using it for updates initially. I have previous Garmin favourite places saved there so it was easy to replicate on this new one. The Bluetooth is a savoir as my vans Bluetooth is a dog to set up and now my phone access is simple. Voice commands are great but you need passengers to be quiet and have no wind noise. If you are not going to use it for a few weeks do a total power off by holding the power button until you get the message to shut down this will keep your battery charged unlike normal power off which only puts it to sleep and the battery will go flat requiring time before full functionality returns. I would buy another one in a heartbeat.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from The good and the bad of Garmin Drivesmart 66 is another great car GPS helper from Garmin, and at a decent price. My ancient Nuvi was also an excellent device in its time, but this new one is a significant upgrade. That's the good; now for the bad: As a company, you stink, Garmin. You do so, because, unlike for my old Nuvi, for which you included a good paper manual, you force your customers to go online for a digital PDF version. Well, Garmin, not every one on this planet has a smart phone, or a tablet – yet – which means that one without the 'benefit' of either of those timewasters would need to lug a laptop computer with him or herself on a trip. That's if they had such. As it happens, I have several such, on one of which I have converted the PDF to A5 size, and printed and bound the result into a book-form manual. But what of those without the benefit of the means and ability to do so? Yes, you stink, Garmin. On the other hand, my supplier, Harvey Norman, of New Plymouth, New Zealand, was, as usual reliable in delivery and price. Thank you, Harvey Norman staff.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent Works great. I love the super clear display you can read the streets very clearly on the map. The only downfall is that it doesn't seem to recognize some of the addresses I have asked it but compared to my last one this one is a dream to use

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Better than my new car's navigation system In a shrinking market, where most people use their phones to navigate, I was pleased to find this item. It does all I wanted it to do, which is much more than my brand new Toyota RAV4's navigation system does.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fantastic Service - Online Fantastic service, I ordered on line and product arrived the next day and we are a rural delivery address, product is exactly what I ordered.

Questions & Answers

Are you providing lifetime updates?

Asked by: Anan
Thanks for your questions Anan. We aren't the manufacturer. Garmin offers lifetime map updates for some devices in New Zealand through the nüMaps Lifetime subscription. According to Garmin, this model, Garmin DriveSmart 66 MT-S, does feature ongoing map updates. Trust this helps! ^CO

Does the data continually update so it shows the latest road changes and closures

Asked by: Vikki
Thanks for your question Vikki. You can update your device using two methods. You can connect the device to a Wi‑Fi network to update directly on the device (recommended). This option allows you to update your device conveniently without connecting it to a computer. You can connect the device to a computer and update it using the Garmin Express™ application (garmin.com/express). Map updates provide the newest available changes to roads and locations in the maps used by your device. Keeping maps up to date helps your device find recently added locations and calculate more accurate routes. Map updates are large and may take several hours to complete. Hope this helps with your query.

When you load geocaches in a POI file do the cache type icons show on the screen?

Asked by: Caching addict
Great question! Yes, custom icons can be created in most graphics editing programs and used to display the locations of custom points of interest on the map, with POI's on a device. You can do this using POI Loader or Garmin Basecamp. Check out the Garmin website for specific info for your model! ^CO

Will this give me a warning if I go faster than the speed limit of the area that I am driving in? I am aware that it will show me what the speed limit is but can an alarm be set to let me know that I am going faster than the speed limit?

Asked by: KimT
Great question Kim! Yes, the Garmin DriveSmart 66 MT-S plays an audible tone or message and displays information for each alert. In NZ, the display shows a red border on the speed limit icon when you exceed the posted speed limit for the current road. Further info found in the manual included with the unit. Trust this helps! ^CO

Does this model support transfer of POI data from a third party source to the gps unit?

Asked by: RoyJ
Great question Roy! According to Garmin, custom points of interest (POIs), such as restaurants and tourist destinations, can be installed to your Garmin automotive device using their POI Loader program. Custom POIs can be found online through various third-party websites, or you can create your own. Trust this helps! ^CO

does it tell me the speed limit on all roads

Asked by: Bruce
Thanks for your question Bruce. One of the Navigation features on this model is a 'Speed limit indicator' (It displays Speed Limit for most major roads in New Zealand and Australia). Hope this helps with your query.

Does the battery really only last for up to one hour as stated in the specifications. Im assuming this is a mistake because that would make the device useless.

Asked by: cactusman
Thanks for your question. The Garmin DriveSmart 66 MT-S GPS Navigator battery has a one-hour lifespan, as indicated on the Supplier's official website. The battery type is Rechargeable lithium-ion. Hope this helps with your query.

Asked a few days ago about deleting an address off the history list. Don't want to lose them all. The answer I got didn't make sense. Couldn't get it to work.

Asked by: Mags
Great question Mags. All 'Recent' locations in the main 'Where to' menu, are automatically deleted over time. Recent locations can't be deleted individually, though the whole list can be cleared by selecting the menu button on the top left, then hitting clear. You can delete 'Saved' locations though. You can do this through the menu button on the 'Saved' menu, then tapping 'Delete Saved Places' which prompts you to select locations to remove, then delete. Trust this helps! ^CO
