Yet another Navigator VI relaunch

[tspivey]

Just got my replacement back today and noticed when connected to Express it’s now referred to as Navigator V1 - 1 rather than just Navigator V1.
It’s got the same serial number so assuming it’s the one I returned, which was also a replacement.
It knew my location on initial start, before acquiring satellites but wasn’t recognised by Express, saying a new device had been detected and it needed the maps/software updating.
Do I have faith in it? I’m not that daft.

EDIT to my above post, it’s not the same serial number, it’s a new unit, I’d been looking at the wrong number.

Just contacted Garmin support re my V1 which was a replacement due to the dreaded ghosting, they have sent a ups label and are exchanging FOC including postage. They also refer to the new model and placing me on their list.

Spoke to Garmin this morning and I have also been put on the list for the new 'upgraded unit'.

According to the operative the 'upgraded unit' should be available in the next few weeks

I wonder what will happen to those bods who apparently paid Garmin for exchange units?

Sooo- to fuel the fire, is the updated “make life a ride” model ok then? Currently on the lookout for a nav 6 but obviously want the best version.

Get a generation three (which should be what the dealers are selling) and all should be well.

If buying secondhand, check the serial numbers. There are umpteen posts on the topic, where the numbers are detailed. Failing that, ask Garmin.
