Last week some friends and I embarked on a 13 hour drive from North Carolina to Mississippi. Our goal was to tow our boat to Mississippi and fish the fertile waters of the Gulf. We decided to start our trip at midnight so we could avoid daytime traffic and arrive just in time to check into the hotel. The 265WT immediately impressed me with its night time display. It also showed us a better way to navigate the first leg of the drive. The voice directions with verbal street names were also very helpful as we had a boat in tow and needed to keep our eyes glued to the highway. The unit was dead on and brought us right to the Hotel. When it was time to go out for dinner, the 265w was able to show a list of nearby restaurants for our crew to choose from. After a long week of fishing we hit the home button on the display and we were on our way back to the Carolina Coast. The 265WT definitely saved us time and money by giving us better routes and helping us not to make any wrong turns. I would highly recommend it for the daily commuter or for a long trip.
