I believe Garmin only have one model for the G6. This is preloaded with more than 25,000 worldwide courses (no subscriptions or fees).

Hello,This is the latest G6 model that comes loaded with 25,000 courses. You can plug it into your computer and update more courses as well.Thank you and have a great day.

Not quite sure what you are asking. Is this the latest model. I believe so. You can also update via your computer using USB cable it comes with.

Not so fast. I purchased the unit back in March of 2015 and the European maps were NOT PRELOADED. I had to contact TOMTOM customer service and send them proof of purchase. MAJOR HASSLE. I ended up returning the unit. Happens too often that vendors on Amazon have a poor understanding of the product they are selling.

I found that the 3rd party maps ordered at a greatly discounted price does not allow for updates of maps. I guess if it came with the maps preloaded you would get the lifetime updates (LM). I currently have the European maps and get the updates. Did you purchase the unit with LM designated behind model number?

Yes! I inserted it and downloaded every map available from Garmin. No problems. Plus I have the other flash drive and the other memory card.Good deal.

I received 370 yesterday with v9 European and v8 North American. When you register your unit on Garmin.com you got free North America map free update. Easy.

I just got off the phone with "Adam" from garmin. He told me (and confirmed it before answering) that if you buy a Garmin 360 you can get a "complimentary" 2009 map upgrade IF it is not already including. Which map included depends on packing date. The point to remember is you MUST REGISTER YOUR PRODUCT WITHIN 60 DAYS or you will have to pay for the update. I hope this helps.

It's a discontinued model by Garmin. You get more bang for the buck when buying this model. I just updated it to the latest 2010 maps and operating system.

As far as I can tell, the maps are current. You get regular updates after you register your GPS (just log in with it connected to your computer).

Yes, it certainly is. I'm glad I got it when I did; I just did my free yearly update and every update takes up a bit more space then the one before. I take it as a good thing. As I digress... Yeah, if it's a good price, grab it. It will work fine. Good Luck and don't forget to download all of the Garmin extras that you may find cool and/or useful from their website. You can register it anytime there as well.

I spoke to the product representative at Amazon and he confirmed that it comes with 2008 maps and NOT 2009. However, Garmin is providing a free update to the 2009 maps if we register the product online in their website.

I rather doubt it. I have three DVDs and none of them are that new. You can call Garmin and they will be glad to answer your question. Also GPS city can answer it also.

I wondered about that too .. although I'd trust Garmin's website and other 3rd party discussion sites ... the ?70 units are built to contain maps for both continents, and the ?80 are the first one's with MSN Direct. Perhaps there'll be a future ?90 (390/690) range that combines the two sets of new features? :) For now, I'm just wondering whether tot ake the plunge with the 660 and its FMt raffic/preloaded POIs, or wait for the MSN-direct 680 to be released (April?)!

I bought mine 10 days ago from Amazon and it came with the 2008 map loaded. As Randy Thress said, you must register your product within 60 days and you get the 2009 map unlocked from the Garmin site for free.

Garmin just released another update, the version number has been updated to 2014.30

I emailed Garmin about the 2009 map updates, and getting them free as well since you purchased one now with the obsolete maps on it. This is what they had to say. Thank you for contacting Garmin International. Our newest version of mapping software was released in May of 2007. The title of this update is City Navigator NT 2008. Map updates are released every 12 - 15 months. You can probably expect our next map update to be released sometime in the Summer of 2008. To check for this update please log onto our website www.garmin.com and click on "MAPS" at the top of the page. The next screen will show "MAP UPDATES", please click on it. This will allow you to type in your 'serial number' in the search field. Type in your serial number and click on 'Find'. This will display your mapping update if there is one to order. If nothing displays this will indicate that your Garmin is already fully up to date. If a map update displays you will also notice there is a link that should allow you to register your product to receive this at no cost. If this is an option your first mapping update will be at no charge. ** Keep in mind for the future, map updates are at a cost. ** Map update can be ordered online from our website www.garmin.com, over the phone at 1.800.800.1020, or in local retail store like Best Buy, Circuit City, Wal-Mart etc. The cost for this update is generally around $75.00 to order. This will be a DVD formatted software disk that will be able to load to your computer. You will need a USB cable to connect your Garmin to the computer for the update to complete. This process is said to take around 45 minutes. This update will give your Garmin device updates on streets, highways, construction, restaurants etc. Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns regarding this update

Some new devices include (at a higher cost) the "lifetime update" option, while others (at less cost) do not... needless to say, you get what you pay for. Rather than replace your old Garmin, you might be better to just buy a map upgrade. Be careful, though, and don't do what I did: I recently bought a lifetime map upgrade for my Nuvi 205, and when it came in the mail, I was shocked to read the fine print and learn that the 205 has limited memory and that this update could not be loaded fully into a 205. MAKE SURE the map update that you buy is compatible with your specific model.

Chris,I ordered my Garmin 370 on August 8, and just received it on August 13. Unfortunately, this unit appears to have the outdated map of North America. How can I confirm that the v9 European map is on the unit? How long did it take for you to receive the newly-released North American maps from Garmin? I live in the UK, but will be in PA until August 26, 2007. Am I likely to receive the maps before departing from the USA? I plan to call Garmin tomorrow to request the newly-released N. American maps free of charge. Did your request for the updated maps require negotiation or was the representative easily convinced to provide the maps free of charge?Thanks for your feedback!
