Avoid tolls - no. But you can set several modes of travel, such as "Quickest Route", "Most Use of Freeways", "Shortest Distance", etc

No, but it gives choices of routes, and you can program it to avoid certain roads and road types (such as no toll roads), fastest route, shortest route. I haven't looked at the route choices yet. I have not had an issue with either of my Garmin GPS units not getting me to my destination; so I usually just let it take me, unless I decide as I'm driving to change roads, then it just re-routes based on the road I am currently on. You could also plot a via point to force it to go a certain way, which I have done with my older unit.

I traveled from Cincinnati to Cleveland to Detroit to Dayton and back to Cincinnati without any issues. It works best when you use a station that is not assigned to a call number (in other words, where you hear static) and the number on either side does not pick up a station either. However, as long as you can find a station with static, you should be fine. If you happen to travel somewhere and the number you choose starts to pick up a station, just adjust your station and the transmitter to match.

It's been a year, so I'm not exactly sure.All tolls needed are in the unit, but I think all you need are 2 hands and the ability to read the instructions.It is a really nice unit. Very sturdy and collasable with some effort. greg

Not that I have seen so far. Service from the company has been excellent, and it's still working well for me. I do wish it could be a bit cheaper, but pricing seems to be at or below the competition, so I'm willing to pay for what works.

Sorry have not used that feature. Usually handled by the carrier but if the phone does it that might save $.

It allows you to avoid unpaved roads and toll roads in the settings. Additionally it says "this route has tolls" for routes with tolls. I've never gone on an unpaved road so not sure if it warns for those or not.

Hello,I just got a 1490T. Please excuse my ignorance, but I decided on that unit for the traffic feature as I commute over 35 miles each way. Thing is, I can't find a description anywhere that tells me what I need to do to have access to just the traffic info i.e. do I need to have the GPS active even when I don't need it - I know how to get to my office, for example. I'm a bit confused......Regards,Barry

Make sure you have the tollways option selected and if that doesn't do it then try updating maps again. Good luck.

According to the item listing traffic is lifetime with no additional charges. Since I've only had the unit for less than 3 months I can't verifiy how long it will really last... so far, so good. To this point I have only gotten one traffic warning.

I have found that it does not pay any attention to the info you put in. My roadmate tries to put me on a parkway (cars only Low bridges). I do not trust the unit and always check the route it gives. My advice would be to change the info when you are using it for the truck. My wife bought the GPS even after I told her about bad reviews.

Ok thanks. I thought mine was broken since I set its preferences to Avoid U-Turns and it was still telling me to "make a U-turn". For some reason it does not have oneway street info for at least two cities here in Oregon with populations over 12000.

Yes it can. There are trunks that can handle simultaneous outbound and incoming traffic.

No - The 65 LMT automatically displays traffic alerts without any additional connections. The only connection that I make to my vehicle is the power connection to the cigarette lighter receptacle. So far I found my Garmin unit to be extremely accurate. No complaints.

I think it does not support 75bps. In the fax setup menu it only allows choice between 9600 and 14400. And in the data menu it does not even show baud rates. I checked the factory documentations and the baud rates are not even mentioned. Having said all this, I do not recommend this modem. It works when it works, but it often hangs up. When it hangs up it needs to be unplugged from the usb and restarted. Phil

It may have had one but I'm not aware of it, I do pay a monthly fee for all needed service. We added it the week it became available and have not had any problems.

My nettalk due is a splendid device and service. It does everything it was advertised to do. If I wanted to cancel it I would contact my payment source and advise them to not make any more anual payments.
