To everyone .....

When I watch the distance to the next turn or destination, if I act when the
nuvi says 100 feet or less to the point of action, I am way too late!!!

Garmin support told me that it should be accurate to one or two car lengths.
That's 15 to 35 feet. No way Jose!! I am consistently past the action
point by then.

Does anyone else have this experience?

Thanks,

Jack

Hi Jack, the 750 should tell you before 100 ft. that your turn is coming
up. Do you have the latest firmware installed?

Make sure its set to automobile and not walking .
That should fix it. If its set 4 walking it waits till you get very close to
a turn.

Darrel,

The voice directions seem to be okay. What I am complaining about is the
countdown footage. Lets say its raining and you are looking for a house
address or even a building in a downtown area. When it says I have arrived
voice and footage wise, I am already past the correct location.
