Can the GPS be updated with new maps as they change?

Yes, but the most recent one available is from 2012. Go to http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Car/Accessories/Map-Upgrades/NAVTEQ+2012+Map+Upgrade+for+AVIC-U310BT

Hi. Go to Garmin.com and find your GPS model listed there. Then click on "Update Maps". Then enter your payment information and download the new 2014/2015 map. Expensive as heck, but worth it if need the latest. Option Two: buy a new (updated & preloaded) GPS for around $100- to $130-.Personally I'd rather buy a new one than update my 2 year old Garmin. Your call of course!Good luck! ;-D

Hello Daina,I don't know if there is an option in the setting that would permit this...It only loads the best rout that it calculates to be the best option. If you connect it with the traffic sensor, and depending on the traffic in your planed rout, it may give a new option (route), and let you know how much time you could save... You will however, have to accept the suggestion before your GPS could implement it (the new route )...Have a great day,Kevin

No. But you can select different maps based on location and load them from your computer.

Unless the ad states that the GPS has the latest firmware I don't think there is any way to tell. When/if you get the GPS load the free software program VantagePoint from Magellan, it will update the firmware, this is a very handy program.I hope this helps.

For Windows:1. Go to http://www.magellangps.com/2. Click Support in the menu bar.3. In the Support menu on the left, click Map Upgrades.4. Choose the options you want from the menus on that page.You will probably have to register your GPS unit, create a Magellan account, and be logged in to be able to update your map.I do not know of any map updates for the Roadmate 5045.

No you have to pay for map updates. The maps that come with it are pretty up-to-date, but not the most up-to-date. The unit gives you a website to go to for updates, and the process is pretty straightforward, but it does cost some money

That, you have to check with Garmin support center ... But SD map has NO map update & it has NO junction view that displays upcoming junctions (only turn-by-turn instruction).

I'm sorry, I can't help you with this one. I purchased a new unit but can tell you that all of the user information and map updates are readily available on the Garmin internet site.

I updated the maps once after purchasing the device as new version of the maps were available. Did not encounter any restriction on the no. of times I could do that. Also the documentation says that it is free for the 'usable' life of the device i.e. until the device can support the newer versions of the map either in the sense of its capability or storage space.

I do NOT believe there is. I am using their "Content Manager" to keep my content GPS updated and it's as slow as the first day I got it. Many times I've already passed a road and/or executed a turn by a couple of seconds before my position is actually recognized (and I am talking about suburbs with no building obstructions.) If you are reading this before purchase, do yourself a favor and consider something else.

Maps for North America are already installed. They need to be updated periodically (~once a year) but the unit should come ready to use.
