If your old one isn't working
By Traveler
I travel a lot , a great deal of 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 substitute tip kit(fuse,metal and plastic screw in components)-I followed his direction and persisted in keeping on for >30minutes but at last spoke to a humane and ordered the kit for $11 including shipping and it arrived in 3 days. It gathered speedily and without apparent effort 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 priceless data but if you take place to need only the "tip" this review will save you money. I could not find this kit for sale on the Garmin website.

Well worth the purchase
By Kevin Keech
I have to deal with a daily work commute in excess of an hour each way, throughout LA county. I've in general tried to check traffic conditions on the web before I take off, but conditions without variation modify 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 crucial reason I purchased my basi GPS.

Lifetime Traffic Receiver
By Peter E. Prindle
Attractively priced and eminently functional. The included NAVTEQ subscription seems rather detailed, particularly on local roads, and if used with the FM Clear Traffic subscription ($60 lifetime), which gives good coverage on the interstates, your traffic knowingness is significantly enhanced.
