I just had the worst customer service I ever experienced in my lifetime. And to make it worse, he said there are no managers around to esculate the problem????? No higher people than the customer service????? WOW! I lost over 400 points of interest that I require to re-visit these locations again stored in the explorist. This morning, went to look at them and they were all gone! The customer service rep said that when changing the batteries, this can happen. ??? WHAT THE !!!! THAT SHOULD BE ON THE COVER OF THE PRODUCT! After the 11 hours that the batterys can last for MAX…. then all your data may be lost because it is time to change the batteries. Great idea to take this on a few day trip in the woods to find out it erased all the way back….. You see the seriousness with this GLITCH that has never been addressed. Hopefully after I post this to enough sites, they may actually address this issue and make for a better product.

Does anyone know if RV Parks and campgrounds category of the POI database for the Magellan 4250 is improved? In earlier models the data was spotty at best.

Bought the Garmin Maestro 4250 at Costco after a week it did not work, returned it and tried another this time the screen was not legable, returned it got a 3rd unit again after a week could not turn it on as the on/off button was defective returned the unit.
I was told it was the most returned item in the warehouse. I’ll try a TOM TOM this time.
