Garmin DriveSmart 76 Overview

From Manufacturer

Enjoy turn-by-turn directions throughout North America, voice-activated navigation and an easy-to-read 7" touchscreen color display, with the DriveSmart 76 and Traffic GPS navigation system from Garmin. Along with pre-loaded, easily updated street maps with 3D images of buildings and terrain, the system comes with numerous features to make driving easier and safer.

Garmin Traffic helps you avoid jams and slowdowns with suggestions for alternate routes. Info from the HISTORY Network will guide you to notable parks, monuments, museums, and historic sites, while an integrated US National Parks directory navigates treasured natural resources and experiences, including visitor centers, picnic areas, campgrounds, trailheads, and more. TripAdvisor info points the way to hotels and restaurants, and data from Foursquare covers millions of local businesses and attractions. Driver alerts warn you of upcoming sharp curves, speed changes, railroad crossings, and more. The Real Directions feature adds local landmarks and businesses to map info for easy navigation (such as: Turn right after the McDonald's). You can pull up a list of upcoming necessities, like banks, gas stations, and markets, alongside your map. Subscribe to photoLive to see traffic cams where available, use Parkopedia to find parking spots in lots and garages, and connect with the Garmin Drive app to see real-time fuel prices along your route. The system is compatible with user-supplied Garmin backup cameras.

Garmin DriveSmart 76 Reviews

Great option for a non-smart car

By Lynn
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2024-04-21

I've been using Garmin GPS units for a long time. This one replaced a much older Garmin GPS that passed away recently. It works great in my Subaru Crosstrek, which did not come with advanced features of any kind, as I was too cheap to pay for them. Nice big screen, fast response and refresh - overall, a good GPS.

Dropped Coverage

The Garmin DriveSmart has all the features that I wanted, thus the purchase. I recently used it during our travel all across Canada from New Jersey. I noticed that the Garmin dropped coverage when we were traveling through the backroads inundated with trees.It's annoying because the screen will just turn blank. If not for my iPhone we would have been lost. It happened several times but only on this road. Otherwise, it does what is expected.
