Garmin nuvi 3450 GPS is the pencil-thin, whip-smart GPS navigator that will get you from place to place with the greatest of ease. This Garmin GPS navigator is powered by the Garmin Guidance 3.0 engine, an advanced Global Positioning navigation engine that has a slew of features that can help you safely navigate to your destination. InstaSearch and InstaRoute functionality make loading maps a much less time consuming process, and you never have to take your eyes off the road to search for a location. The nuvi 3450 will even read incoming text messages to you so your attention never wavers from driving. The Garmin nuvi 3450 features voice operated, turn by turn navigation that prompts you with actual street names instead of a vague distance. If you find yourself in an emergency, use the "Where Am I?" emergency locator to find nearby hospitals, police stations, intersections, and your exact latitude and longitude.

Sometimes finding the right lane to turn or exit the highway can be a frustrating process, especially in an unfamiliar city with heavy traffic, but Garmin has installed photoReal junction view on this Garmin nuvi GPS. PhotoReal shows a realistic, 3D depiction of your route, right down to street signs and lane designations. If you'd like to get a different perspective on things, use the Bird's Eye junction view for an overhead look. One of the great things about the Garmin nuvi 3450 Car GPS is its split screen functionality, which puts Bird's Eye view right alongside the street view, giving you a comprehensive picture of your route. This GPS navigator is incredibly easy to operate, with a responsive glass touch screen and pinch to zoom functionality. The screen has an automatic orientation feature that adjusts the picture to display either vertically or horizontally, depending on how you're holding it. And the Garmin nuvi 3450 Guidance GPS is literally pencil-thin, measuring out at just 9mm wide.

Like most Garmin GPS devices, the Garmin nuvi 3450 Touchscreen GPS takes advantage of Garmin's wide catalog of maps, cars, and voices. The Garmin nuvi can be expanded with a microSD card that lets you build on the already comprehensive features of the navigator. CityXplorer maps are available for many metropolitan areas, and you can download additional country and highway maps from the extensive selection of Garmin maps. Use Garmin Garage to load your nuvi 3450 GPS up with custom voices and vehicles. What's more, this GPS even includes a car mount that will charge the Garmin nuvi while you drive. For efficient, voice-activated navigation in a slim and sleek package that's easy to operate, pick up the Garmin nuvi 3450 Guidance 3.0 GPS and hit the road!
