![]() Advanced detours gives you some new options when you tap the Detour icon, including the ability to exclude specific roads from routes on the fly. The former allows you to specify individual streets or sections thereof (see image below) and complete areas to avoid.

Unfortunately, final arrival times do not take into account stop duration as set up in the Trip Planner. ![]() You can see the “Via Arrival” option enabled in the top data field below. I’ve discussed this before, and I’ll refer you there for details, but the short story is you can correct speed limits when the device has them wrong.Īnother new feature, is the addition of several via point options for the customizable data fields. Garmin is taking advantage of the 5” screen real estate on the 24xx series by allowing you to customize the main menu. NOTE: Portions of this review were adapted from previous hands on reviews of other nuvi models. Also note that the smaller 2300 series lacks the customizable main menu of the 2400 series. Or maybe its just too big to make good use of those. I suspect it has to do with price point or specs for integrated chipsets, but that’s just conjecture. For whatever reason, the 2360 models include a dual-orientation screen and tri-axial compass, features not found on 2460’s. Based on past history, you’d expect the nuvi 2360 series to have the same feature set as the 2460’s, except with a smaller screen. While many people complain about the number and variety of nuvis available, Garmin has (generally) been consistent as to feature sets and model numbers. ![]() I’ll start with the newer features first, then cover other popular features, before wrapping up with an evaluation of navigation performance. Now that we have that out of the way, on to the details. To see how the 2460LT stacks up against other models, check out my Garmin nuvi comparison chart.Going the other direction, with the nuvi 2450, you’ll give up lifetime traffic, Bluetooth and voice commands.Step up to the 2460LMT for the same feature set plus lifetime map updates.
