Nuvi 370 works great for me , don’t have any problems with it so far what so ever.Got it with purpouses of going to europe and it happened im going soon so will be greate to use it. I know it have not dissapointed me while i was in US trying to find places ,so shouldn’t be a problem. It gives you all places ur happen to be arround ,stores, restaurants, hotels as well as gas stations and many more .You can store them in “favorites” file so it’s easier for u to find good places u like.
It’s very easy to operate and has large selection of languages so every one can have it programed without any doubts what this or that can be for .Also nuvi 370 informs you not only through the speaker but also shows on top of maping you are currently about up comming turns.Gives you also information like an average speed and speed u’re going,milage and total timing.

We purchased the Nuvi 370 (our 3rd GPS) for use on an upcoming bicycle tour in Europe. It has full detailed maps of all of North America and Europe pre loaded. It is very intuitive to program and use. The display is bright and very easy to read. Battery life isn’t too bad (about 4-5 hours depending upon backlight use. I have built a little battery pack for use during bicycle touring. With a 10 pack of AA batteries,we have 20 hours of operating time. I would give the Nuvi 370 5 stars for navigation and ease of use.

Since this is my first GPS, I really have no way to compare whether this GPS is “better” than others. I can only describe my experiences with it.

I first used the GPS locally (southeastern PA) to test it out since I had an upcoming trip to VT where I planned to really use it. I wanted to make sure I’d know how to use the controls. I used the GPS while taking public transit to see what it would say the best route was. I also used it while walking near my home and Philly to see if it knew small local streets. The GPS performed well (detouring whenever I went in unexpected directions) during these tests. There are settings to change your mode of transport to bike, bus, car/truck, foot, etc. and I used many of these modes. I never encountered any streets that weren’t known and this surprised me since these maps are from 2006 and there is tons of construction. Speaking of which, that was one of my complaints: that 2006 maps are included with a late 2007 sold product. I think it should have the maps of the year it is sold in.

I have just returned from a trip to Europe (London, Paris, Rome, and Florence) where I used the Nuvi 370 extensively and it worked great. First of all, I put a lot of the places I would be going to in the “Favorites” list before I left. The great thing about Nuvi is that it sorts this list based on distance from wherever you happen to be. So I didn’t have to scroll through points for Paris or Rome when I was in England and vice versa. Very useful. I also found that the points of interest had all the sightseeing landmarks that I was going to visit and nearly every restaurant that I had earmarked for meals. I also got the translation guide which came in very useful (especially to explain “tap water” at European restaurants, they really want to sell you bottled water and pretend to not understand what tap water means, but showing them in their own language on Nuvi always got the point across). Now here is a report of actual real world use as a pedestrian in Europe.
