X2. Our 2797LMT also shows phone numbers.

If I am correct whenever I create a custom POI I have the option to add whatever information I want displayed.

Route numbers may be used if the route doesn't otherwise have a name. And sometimes the route number is shown on the screen but not spken (or vice versa).

We use the 2797 in the Toad, but have the Dezl 760 for the motorhome - I like being able to enter the dimensions of the rig (height, length, weight, etc) and get some assurance that I won't be routed to places that won't be big enough. The Dezl is essentially a trucking unit, but with RV pofiling built in. Takes some getting used to, but hasn't done us wrong so far. Although why the unit insists that the exit ramp to a rest area or truck stop has "unknown truck access" is beyond me. :)

No on phone and No on route numbers (unless road does NOT have a name)... I have had a Garmin 2597 for 2 years...

I would LOVE to have route numbers displayed.


a great unit otherwise... do not select SHORTEST Routes...
first time I used it in this mode.. it had me enter a MALL from the rear entrance... with the trucks.

i don't know how to tell you anything about the phone number, but thats the unit i was thinking of getting. does this unit tell you what route number instead of just the street name you will be turning on. what else do you like about this unit.
