Like finding gold at the end of the rainbow (5/5) Nov 26, 2006 Barry J Kriegsman Foxborough MA US
  After much research lasting two years I decided on the Nuvi 660 when it came to the market. With out a doubt it is a remarkable and easy to use system. The learning is easy the manuals are well written & so accurate it is scary. Accuracy within 15 to 20 feet is remarkable. In the one month since I had it & have used daily. I did have a minor problem around new construction in Virginia the unit recalculated itself & within seconds on the road again. I plan on using it in Europe by purchasing the Europe program. The traffic avoidance system is excellent. You have to learn to trust the unit as it is almost flawless it it's ability to keep you on course, finding stores & all other Points of interest. I am glad I waited for this to come out. I want to add the service & folks at 4X4 are excellent. I have already downloaded the latest version of the 660. In closing it is worthy the money & you will be very happy with it. Loaded with features that are fantastic.

Sincerely ,

extremely accurate (5/5) Nov 14, 2006 Anna Martin Antioch Ca US
  We have had our Nuvi 660 for just a few days. Used it once and found it to be extremely accurate. We got a kick out of the voice, at one point thought she might have gotten a little testy because she had to "recalculate".
We hope that it will continue to get us where we want to go.
Garmin's Nuvi 660 is the best! (5/5) Nov 1, 2006 Alan Pybas Wetumpka Al US
  I've owned this unit for a few days now and it is unbelievable how accurate and technologically advanced this unit is compared to others. I recently tested a competitor's model that cost half as much, and it is true...you get what you pay for. I've since returned it and decided the 660 was the model to own. I also own a Garmin V and have used it for years so I should of stuck with garmin in the first place. The 660 has a great map interface and all the buttons are where they should be...meaning you don't have to dig six menus down to find what you are looking for. The directions to locations are on spot and the time to calibrate or re-route due to a detour is extremely short. I also love using the unit while not navigating to a location. While you drive it will indicate the name of upcoming streets and gives you a situational awareness of your surroundings. The bluetooth phone works great and the sound quality is awesome. Also the ability to transmit both phone and voice directions to your car stereo is the best I have ever experienced. The mp3 player is nice and mutes the song playing when the GPS voice gives directions as well. Bottom-line: The 660 is well made, designed, and performs brilliantly. The unit is worth every penny, don't waste your time buying an inferior, less expensive brand...you won't be happy with it! Also, I purchased this at 4:45pm online in Alabama and received it the next morning at 10:00 am. GPSNOW really lives up to its order by 5pm and receive it the next day!
Garmin Nuvi 660 (4/5) Apr 30, 2007 Adam Reed Middletown Ohio US
  I own multiple Garmin GPS units and the Nuvi 660 is a great addition. The advantages of the Nuvi 660 are the size and clarity of the screen and the increased coverage of the new antenna system. I only lost a signal once over the past 2 weeks and that was when I forgot to turn the unit off while going through a car wash. I love the ability to transmit through the FM on my car radio.

The down sides are the fact that the owner manual comes on a CD. I liked having the chance to thumb through at my own pace with the previous models. The other thing is that yes the unit works directly out of the box but if I did not already know how to check for updates on the unit through the Garmin website, I believe that would have escaped me. Another change on this unit is the fact that you can no longer see a list of the step by step directions of a calculated route, ie. Mapquest dircections.

All in all the unit is great and I am happy with my purchase.
Garmin 660 is Great (5/5) Jan 28, 2007 Anonymous Evansville IN US
  Great product works great on giving local directions...don't agree with the route it gave me for long distance but accuate. Glad I bought the 660 over the lesser model. MP3 works great and so does the Blue Tooth. GPSNow was excellent quick delivery just as requested.
