We  got this GPS as a gift for Christmas.  After a long road trip of using an Atlas and the GPS on our iPhones, we decided that we needed a real GPS for the car.  This was particularly true when we were driving through areas that did not have cell service and being in the middle of no where with no land marks and we wanted to know how far we were from our next destination. 

It does not seem to be able to locate us if we are in a building (like when we first opened it we were in the house, or in a parking garage) and since we park in the garage at night we have to remember to stop the car long...
