Summary: 4 Stars
The 855 is a replacement for a 760. I liked the 760 despite the usual Garmin flaws of clunky website, occasional mis-direction, and poor instructions. The 855 is bigger and badder, but so far I haven't used it for more than I did the 760. A trip from Wyoming to Houston in my 2010 Outback found the 855 trying to send me around Denver via a toll road, though I told it no pay roads. Turns out this was a feature designed to route me around mealtime traffic. Not a big deal, but it was irritating. It sent me North around San Antonio, when I saw Southern routes that were significantly shorter, so must assume (at 4pm) it might be traffic-related too. The Northern route was more touristy, which I DID want (LBJ Ranch, Museum of the Pacific War, others) to see, so it was acceptable. Around Houston, it helped a lot, but traffic always makes it hard to keep glancing at the screen. The voice was too soft (volume turned all the way up) at times for the traffic noise, but I found my way with only minor issues in Houson's spaghetti highways. Later return to San Antonio worked beautifully, and son and I got back to Houston late, but just fine. Return to Wyoming found me trying some secondary (U.S.) Highways instead of the Interstate, and with only a couple of missed turns, did just fine. I learned map reading in Boy Scouts, continued it in the Military, and 9 years travelling the State for work, so am a bit better at finding my way around than the average driver. I don't like having to recharge the battery every month, and often the 855 doesn't go into charge mode (not visibly) when I plug it into the USB port. Navigation on the website is not the best, and I still don't fully understand when I need to buy a city map versus the general map, as well as exactly how to switch from Wyoming to Colorado to New Mexico to Texas as I go along. It would be nice to have a simple screen (or decent instructions) on how to do it. But with perseverance and a few cuss words, the trip went very well (grandbabies' birthdays), and the 855 was a big help in planning distances, times, roads and turns. Now my phone offers similar service, but at $12/month (or $2.99/day), I'll stick with the 855 (it's paid off!). Useful device despite some shortcomings for us non-tech folks. And despite only a moderate battery life when walking around a city, it was also helpful there.
