Received in time, inserted and worked better than I thought with a Garmin Zumo 550.

I'm sure this item performs admirably. BUT BE CAREFUL WHEN ORDERING. Amazon's website can be misleading if you don't read carefully. I accidentally ordered the item in the wrong format...one incompatible with my GPS unit. Amazon's website implied that it was compatible; my fault...I didn't read carefully enough! I was unsuccessful trying to get satisfaction from the vendor so I am out $84; a bitter pill for retired fella to swallow. I have yet to try Amazon's Money Back Guarantee..........but I will try it and I hope to recoup some of my loss.

Using this product probably could not be more simple, all you really have to do is plug it in. After doing so I was finding Geocaches faster than before and was confident to travel places unknown afore. Not only does this card unlock new details on top of the basemap but many more features I had no idea my Garmin Colorado could do. Bought it from Amazon because they are trusted and only a few bucks off the best price I found on the net. If you have a Colorado I highly recommend this product. I didn't give 5 stars because the maps certainly are not flawless but come close I suppose. My one negative; and this is being very selective shall we say, is because a couple days ago coming back from a hike I called up the nearest gas station and the map was 0.15 mile off.

This is a mini SD card with an SD card adapter. I've had no problems finding any road from firebreaks to interstates. Works great to turn the Garmin Colorado 400t Handheld GPS Unit with US Topographic Preloaded Maps into an automobile navigation unit as well.

Works great! I had no idea that the software would be so sophisticated. I use it all the time to navigate the streets in Atlanta.

The Benefits Of A Car GPS System
By Andrew Winthorp

Driving from point A to point B has gotten much easier over the years, as tracking technology like GPS (Global Positioning System) brings the added convenience of many different capabilities. When looking to purchase a car GPS system, a new world of easier traveling, enhanced safety, and property protection becomes accessible. To fully comprehend the many benefits of car GPS, consider the following:

Lost on the Road?

When written directions are no help and you find yourself traveling a dark, intimidating road that doesn't look too familiar - one of the best benefits of car GPS comes when you are able to find your way out of the darkness. All of this is made possible with a technology that enables you to pinpoint your exact location and then use a tracking system to create a course to follow that gets you where you need to go. Many users simply use GPS to create a mapped-out plan before taking to the road and running the risk of getting lost.

Safety and Protection

In this day and age, you never know when you will become a victim of a crime, such as car theft. When criminals are aware that a GPS tracking system is installed on a vehicle, it makes drivers less susceptible to this illegal act, which sometimes involves violence. If you have found that your car has been stolen, a GPS tracking system can aid the police in locating your car in less time by pinpointing the exact position of your automobile - no matter where it is.

Depending on the kind of GPS car system you choose, various features are included. Some consumers enjoy built-in roadside assistance, monitoring services, and access to emergency help. Certain models of in-car systems are automatically keyed in to alert the nearest 911 operator if an accident should take place.

Small Size and Ease of Use

The benefits of car GPS systems are connected to a small unit that easily attaches to your windshield or dashboard. Following the directions of a GPS system for the car is rather easy, as you input your desired location and wait for further instructions that deliver turn-by-turn commands given by a voice in real time. Now days, it is quite common to see rental agencies installing GPS in their vehicles to entice their customers. Also, if a rental car is stolen, GPS easily finds it without losing any time.

Save Money

The benefits of car GPS systems also places more money in your pocket, as some companies are now lowering the rates of car insurance for drivers possessing this added advantage. Companies are now acknowledging those who purchase a car with this type of system already installed, as well as offer savings to those who have GPS car tracking installed after the purchase of a new or used vehicle.

In the long run, you stand to save money when buying a GPS car system even without the car insurance discounts. Consumers spend less money on gas when they are aware of their exact positioning on the road, and have the means to quickly get where they want to go in less time and without wasting gas.
