Very nice. Have fun with your new Nuvi 760! I hope it has support for a DC car adapter.

yes its got everything except the carry case and the 115 VAC adapter which I'll get from Target or Wally World. I down loaded all the new 2010 program for the computer and lap top free and reprogramed the nuvi along with that, it was able to put all my PIO's from my old C340 on the new 760. now I have to learn all its functions and how to make them work on the trucks radio.

TT,
Enjoy your new toy. Our kids gave us the Tom Tom for Christmas and we have found it to work well.

Have fun, I allways love new doo-dads. We still have the old c550 and it serves us well. They all, at some point, will tell you to turn when you absolutly know better. Somehow that little voice gets you back on track. Not a problem with fam car but with trailer in tow that little wrong turn could make a interesting post someday...Steve

For sure I always love new and interresting things that can make my day easier. it also keeps the gray matter working.
we had a old c340 GPS and I'll put that in the wifes car and use it untill it dies.

Nice, Don! For awhile I was thinking I might get a new gps as mine is getting long in the tooth. I researched a bunch and decided on either the Garmin 755T or 765T. They had pretty much everything I wanted. I don't have the 760 in my notes so I don't know how it differs from the ones I mentioned. But I bet it's very similar. If so, it's a good one. Good luck with it and enjoy. Oh, by the way, I decided to hold off and use my Street Pilot 2720 until it dies. Squeaky wallet syndrome got me.
