Good For RV or Travel Trailer Navigation
I bought the Garmin RV 795 because I have a 24′ travel trailer and Google Maps is notorious for misrouting travelers into tight spaces. On a few trips it routed me incorrectly into places that were difficult to get out of in my pickup truck alone and would have been a nightmare with a travel trailer. So far, the RV 795 has only directed me on roads where a trailer can safely be towed.You need a lot of information about your trailer and tow vehicle to set this up but the information is readily available online. You’ll need to know the width, height, and weight of your trailer, the weight and length of your tow vehicle, and the total length of the trailer and tow vehicle. You can create profiles for multiple vehicles & combinations so it’s easy to switch from towing a trailer to tow vehicle only.The user interface takes a little getting used to but it’s not terribly difficult. By default you cannot enter or change destination or settings while moving. That is good for the driver (eyes on the road, please!) but you can disable that so the passenger can make updates while the vehicle is in motion.I used the enclosed suction cup to mount the RV 795 on my windshield just below the rearview mirror. I haven’t had a problem with the device attached to the mount but I remove and hide it when parked and twice the mount fell off of the windshield. Only seems to happen when the RV 795 is not on the mount.The Garmin makes it easy to find gas stations. It lists (most of) them in order of distance. The one thing to watch for is that the Garmin cannot tell you if a particular station has the space needed when towing a longer trailer. Best to follow the old rule of thumb when towing: start looking for a gas station when you get to half a tank. That will give you some slack if getting to, into, or out of the nearest gas station would be too difficult.It also has a long list of Campgrounds, State Parks, and RV parks. Updating the info is easy although it can be a bit cumbersome. It updates over wifi. If you have a hotspot on your phone you can use that but it might take quite a while. It works well with home wifi IF you have a way to power the RV 795. I used a ham radio power supply with a cigarette lighter plug like the one that powers the RV 795 while traveling. It would be nice if Garmin sold a power supply specifically for use at home with their GPS systems.The RV 795 give you a lot of information while you are traveling. In addition to directions, it will track your speed vs. the posted limit. Good for people with a lead foot! It also warns about upcoming sharp bends in the road. In my experience it was overly cautious about “sharp bend” warnings but I prefer that to being surprised. There are many other features such as satellite imagery that I’ve just begun to experiment with.Overall, this is a very useful aid for traveling in a recreational vehicle, especially if you are towing.

generally good but double check the route
we use it on every trip because we have a very tall 5th wheel trailer at 13’ 7 1/4”. it works great most of the time, but sometimes it routes us odd ways for no apparent reason. i suggest double checking your route with regular GPS to insure it isn’t taking you out of your way for no reason. just do a sanity check on it. 👍

You may have trouble finding a place to mount this.
This Garmin has a large, beautiful screen, and because of its size, it is very easy to touch and move the map while driving. However I did find I had trouble finding a suitable location to mount it using the supplied suction cup mount. For your reference, I placed this in a class B Sprinter RV and ended up using the most forward location on the driver side door, in such a way as to not block my side view mirrors. It just barely worked. Barely. As you can imagine, opening the drivers’ door was now limited to the range of the power cable which I had connected above and behind the drivers’ seat (routed along the top of the door, through the grab handle, and into a cigarette outlet above and behind my seat.)Pros:*Large screen, good audio volume for directions (Garmin was about 20″/ 51cm away from my head).*I really appreciated the customization for the vehicle height, weight, length, and width. We avoided all routes with low clearance bridges!!*The magnetic/charging suction cup mount was sturdy and held the unit firmly in place.* Easy sharing of GPX files over WiFi: I planned a route on an iPad using the InRoute app (which also has vehicle size customization), and was able to send over the GPX file to the Garmin very easily when I had Wifi service. The route stored in the “Route Planner” tab is easy to find and select for navigating.*The ability to add all sorts of map information along the route: Fuel, “trendy places”, campgrounds, places to stay, eat, etc.Cons:*The size of the Garmin itself! The entire body measures 11″ / 28cm diagonal.*Those of you new to Garmin products, as I am, may find the learning curve for inputting info a little less than intuitive.*Complete user manual is online.*Cost.If you have enough space for a dash mount -without blocking your view out the windshield- this may be the unit for you. Personally, I will be returning this and selecting a smaller unit which still allows for setting vehicle height etc, parameters.Safe travels!

My choice for an RV gps
Overall, I am extremely pleased. I have used RV-specific GPSs from Garmin for quite a few years, so this one continues the line of very good usability for an RV. This is larger than my previous models, and that makes it easier to see in my motorhome. It connects well with my iPhone, which adds to its functionality. There are just a couple of “heads up” for a perspective buyer, neither of which is a stopper. First, even with my years of Garmin experience, there was still a pretty steep learning curve. Even after a few trips, I have to think about how to get the device to do what I want. That will come, but don’t expect to take it out of the box and have it feel as comfortable as as an old pair of slippers, Second, it is Android based, which means a few features are not available on Mac operating systems. Just one example, with my Mac, I can’t look inside the 895 and see the file structure and just add new items to the appropriate folder. If you have a Windows-based computer, that should be no problem. For me in the Mac world, it’s not a real problem. I just use WiFi to send routes or waypoints to the 895. I only mention it because when I first got mine, it threw me for a bit of a loop not being able to get to the files on the 895 until Garmin support told me about the Android base, and the resulting limitations for Mac. No biggie. There is, as I said, an easy work-around, but I wanted other Mac users to know about this little quirk. Even with all of this, I am very glad I bought this and I recommended it to my son, who also drives an RV.

Interface agréable. Plusieurs fonctionnalités adaptées. Recherches de points d’intérêt faciles. Écran clair. À ce jour, le GPS se comporte bien.

Like the screen and most features (e.g. the break scheduler is nice), but really odd routing for custom routes. If the custom route folds back on itself (e.g. delivery runs), it keeps track of which flags are done so far, but sometimes it sees a known road and just forgets all about what flags are done/upcoming, and just jumps ahead/back to another point in the custom route that uses the same road.Also occasionally avoids some weight-restricted roads even if you choose ‘Car’ profile.There is no way to report these type of issues from the unit, and I often forget to go online after my trip, so who knows if Garmin is even aware of these issues. Since there’s a paired app for live traffic, it seems there should also be a “report an issue” feature.

The beauty of this unit is the size, quality, and dependability. We like the fact that you input your coaches measurements, then no need to worry about road restrictions or bridges etc. Also with this GPS you are not using data to increase costs and with the GPS you are less likely to loose the signal. Best bang for the buck!

Installed in my 90’s RV, set up was fairly straightforward with the app.The suction mount is totally useless for mounting on the dash, will not stick at all, sticks to the window fine if you want a big screen blocking you view.We have a different suction mount that has the same size ball and it puts the screen right where I want it.The unit has been working very well and very pleased with it.

Excellent. Tel que demandé. Un livret serait le bienvenue. Internet est là pour faciliter la tâche. Garmin est fiable.
