Features

Loaded and wide, nüvi 760 has it all — advanced navigation features, a widescreen display, preloaded maps, an FM transmitter, hands-free calling, traffic alerts and more. Like the rest of the wide nüvi 700-series, its premium navigation capabilities, like route planning and a handy locator, give you peace of mind on the go.






See More

With nüvi 760's widescreen display, you'll always get the big picture. View map detail, driving directions, photos and more in bright, brilliant color. Its sunlight-readable, 4.3-inch display is easy to read — from any direction.






Navigate With Ease

nüvi 760 comes ready to go right out of the box with preloaded City Navigator® NT street maps and millions of points of interest (POIs) such as hotels, restaurants, fuel stations, ATMs and more. Simply touch the color screen to enter a destination, and nüvi takes you there with 2-D or 3-D maps and turn-by-turn voice directions. It even announces the name of exits and streets so you never have to take your eyes off the road. In addition, nüvi 760 accepts custom points of interest, such as school zones and safety cameras and lets you set proximity alerts to warn you of upcoming POIs. The European version even includes a preloaded safety camera database containing locations of cameras for parts of Europe.






Where Am I?

Keep track of yourself and your car with nüvi 760. Just tap "Where Am I?" to find the closest hospitals, police stations, fuel stations, nearest address and intersection. Also see your exact latitude and longitude coordinates. nüvi 760 even remembers where you parked. It automatically marks your position when you remove it from the windshield mount, so you can navigate with nüvi on foot and find your way back to your vehicle. Perfect for unfamiliar spots and crowded lots such as amusement parks, stadiums and malls.






Plan Ahead

nüvi 760 includes advanced navigational features to take the worry out of traveling. With route planning you can save 10 routes, specify via points and preview simulated turns on the 760's wide screen. In addition, nüvi 760 automatically sorts multiple destinations to provide an efficient route for errands, deliveries or sales calls. It also displays speed limits for highways and Interstates. A trip log provides an electronic bread crumb trail of up to 10,000 points, so you can see where you've been on the map.






Make Hands-free Calls

Talk about worry-free driving. nüvi 760 integrates Bluetooth® wireless technology with a built-in microphone and speaker for hands-free calling. Just pair it with your compatible Bluetooth phone and talk hands-free through the 760 while staying focused on the road. Simply dial numbers with nüvi's touchscreen keypad to make a call. To answer calls, just tap the screen and speak directly into its built-in microphone.






Avoid Traffic Tie-ups

Steer clear of traffic with nüvi 760's integrated FM TMC traffic receiver. Receive alerts about traffic delays and road construction that lie ahead on your route. Next, simply touch nüvi's screen to view traffic details or detour around the problem area.






Take It With You

nüvi 760's high-sensitivity internal (non flip-up) antenna gives it a sleeker, thinner design than the nüvi 600-series, making it easy to slip in your pocket or purse. Its rechargeable lithium-ion battery makes it convenient for navigation by car or on foot.






Go Beyond Navigation

Navigation is just the beginning.




nüvi 760 includes many “must have†entertainment and travel tools including MP3 player, audio book player (subscription to Audible. com required), JPEG picture viewer, currency converters and more. With nüvi 760's wireless FM transmitter¹ you can hear audio, including voice prompts, MP3s and audio books, through your vehicle's stereo. It's compatible with optional MSN® Direct content and our free Garmin Garage where you can download custom vehicles that show your location on the map. It also comes with Garmin Lock™, an anti-theft feature. Optional plug-in SD cards let you add additional features to enhance your travel experience including language translation and detailed travel guides. Our SaversGuide® provides information on nearby merchants offering discounts to customize your nüvi whether you’re traveling or close to home.
 
You are so right about GPS!!!

I picked up the novi5000 which has a larger screen and this thing is
unreal.

It practically drives for you. I cannot recall when I puchased something
that exceeded my expectations by such a large degree that I would
have gladly paid twice the amount for it.

I am still amazed at how accurate it is.

GPS has done for travel what the remote control did for T.V.'s.

Where is your sense of adventure?:dontknow: ;) :D

Actually my wife's last 3 vehicles have had navigation systems and I would never buy another car that did not have it.
 
i have only used my nav three times, but i guess if i drove alot or to new places it would be nice..
 
I have a TomTom, it is worth much more than I paid!!

We have our TomTom programmed to sound an alarm when we are within 1.5 miles of a Dunkin Donuts!!;)

The Nuvi looks real nice!

That looks like an awesome piece of equipment. I got the portable ///ALPINE model since it docks into the truck and displays on the in-dash screen. Then, if I have to use it in my other SRT I can mount it in there as well. OR if I am walking through a city I don't know before I get lost I can carry it with me while listening to MP3 music. I'm gonna try to use it to find eddie and Stinker's room in Panama City.

On a serious note, I amaze myself when I see I am using it to navigate to and fro through the same highways and biways that I have been for over 20 years without it. Technology makes me lazier and less prone to using my noggin. But I'm happy.:dontknow:
