5 out of 5 stars If your old one isn't working   December 5, 2009
Traveler (Bay Area)
29 out of 30 found this review helpful

I travel a lot , many rental cars etc.and carry my own GPS, Garmin770. Arrived at a new destination and plugged in my GPS and no power- I thought there was something wrong with the cigarette lighter outlet but noticed the "tip" of my GTM20 was missing. I went to Amazon and didn't feel like spending the $86 for a new GTM20, even though I like hearing the GPS lady warning me there is traffic in 2 miles. I was just going to buy a regular Garmin automobile power cord when I read a review of a guy who had an identical experience with losing the tip. He described in detail how he phoned Garmin support and got the replacement tip kit(fuse,metal and plastic screw in components)-I followed his direction and persisted in holding on for >30minutes but finally spoke to a human and ordered the kit for $11 including shipping and it arrived in 3 days. It assembled quickly and easily and I didn't have to by a new power adapter of any sort. I looked and can't find the review that gave me this valuable information but if you happen to need only the "tip" this review will save you money. I could not find this kit for sale on the Garmin website.


5 out of 5 stars Well worth the purchase   July 9, 2009

I have to deal with a daily work commute in excess of an hour each way, across LA county. I've generally tried to check traffic conditions on the web before I take off, but conditions invariably change as I'm on the road - more so given the long commute. The GTM 20 has made my commute times much shorter and more predicable now, and was the primary reason I bought my first GPS.

Initially I thought the unit wasn't working - the device has no LED status indicators on it (apparently the older models did) - so I thought I was missing a step in the setup. I eventually discovered that my house, which lies in the foot hills, is in the shadow of the FM traffic transmitters. However, once I'm a few miles from home, all is well.

As far as setup goes: there is no setup, no registration, no subscription to pay for - just plug it in. Very nice.

If you have long metropolitan commutes, I highly recommend the GTM 20.

Attractively priced and eminently functional. The included NAVTEQ subscription seems quite detailed, especially on local roads, and if used with the FM Clear Traffic subscription ($60 lifetime), which gives good coverage on the interstates, your traffic awareness is significantly enhanced.

Excellent product. We used it on our recent Bloomington Gold trip from Dallas, TX to Chicago, IL, via St Louis, MO. It worked flawlessly and saved time by rerouting us when a heavy traffic existed in front of us.

Purchased this adapter to replace the original power cord/traffic receiver - better made and better receiver than original.
