Still learning how to use the Quest, but so far a great on road GPS.Autozoom: It zooms in as you near your turn and after you complete the turn it zooms back out to include your current location and the next turn. Overall it requires less button pushing during a trip.-Turn notification: It notifies you three times of the next turn. -After you completed the previous turn -As you get closer -Just before-Display: The color display is very readable in sunlight. Colors and line widths can be customized. The unit keeps track of sunset and sunrise times and changes the background accordingly so that aren't blinded at night. And it AUTOmatically Re-Calculates when you get off course. This is neat. Programming the Quest to go where I know, and purposely go off route to familiarize myself with its characteristics. Trying to figure out how to mount it on my B6. I did install a power access. on the fairing, but the Quest is waterproof, has a battery (up to 20 hrs.), and is very compact.
