I've been doing some research on these two GPS units! Is seems to me there is really only two differences:1. The 2797 is about $150 less2. RV760 has input of your height to aid in low clearancesHow much is that worth? Is low clearance a bigger issue traveling East?I decided that I'll pick one of these two garmin's! I like the ability to give voice commands while driving, much easier for me, my last garmin had the same function and worked great.Any feedback is appreciated! Ru

I went with the 2797 after lots of research. We only travel major highways, so height clearances aren't critical.

A refurbed DEZL 760LMTI recently bought one and couldn't be happier. I just couldn't justify the premium for the RV version.
