Rand McNally 7725 GPS--like it?

I should have posted before jumping to the camping world sale, but I ordered the unit. OK--now tell me if I should quickly return it, or is it good? The only post I found said they didn't like it.

Are the new ones good? Thanks folks, Mark

    We almost bought one but checked with them and they do not have Mexico maps available for that unit. That was the deal breaker for us.

    My understanding is the reason they came up with the newer model (7725) so fast was the older model (7710) had so many serious issues, freezing, crashing, bricking (as in dying for real), etc.

    I would avoid the 7710

    There was a major up date to the firmware and software on my 7710.
    I have had no issues with it!
    You must have seen it on the internet! So it must be true!
