Two Thumbs up on 6000T

by hockeydad39 , Sep 04 '06
Pros: Multiple destinations, traffic monitoring, text to speech announcement of all streets, not just interstates etc.
Cons: CD manual not printed. Traffic antenna adds clutter but I've hidden it, On/off button clumsy.
Having quite of few built-in navigation systems in my other vehicles, I was skeptical of a portable unit for my new car purchased without Navigation. Although the factory units weren't always perfect, they seemed to provide advanced functionality ...

Unhappy Magellan Purchaser/User

by usaf6988 , Mar 23 '08
Pros: NONE
Cons: Unreliability and tech support, which is non-existent.
This product has proved totally unsatisfactory. I have been using GPS since 1990 (my first units were used in aircraft for navigation purposes) The map system used by Magellan is unreliable and/or completely out of date. My unit, used in the area of my ...

Magellan Tech Support- Not worth buying GPS

by gojo19 , Aug 04 '07
Pros: Easy to use and read. Mostly accurate.
Cons: Tech support is horrible.
I purchased a refurbished RoadMate 6000T. I have used it in Canada, Washington and Colorado. When it is working it works great. The screen is easy to use and directions are clear and accurate. The unit is easy to use and for the most part self ...

1st time user review

by thevoyager , Mar 15 '07
Pros: Ease of setup, voice/trip features.
Cons: Turning unit off; calling via address book.
This is my first GPS system so when I researched units, I wanted one that provided inputting of multiple destinations, i.e., trip planning. This feature works quite well. I also like the voice commands that tell you the street names, direction to turn, ...

dont waste your money on this product
by coronaman59 ,Dec 15 '07
Pros: nice size screen
Cons: price, tech support, and magallen in general
bought me a magellan 6000t. Paid 700 for it just last year and now its DOA. Trying to get any info from their tech support is a nightmare. Their support base is in India. Cant even understand them. They kept asking the same questions over and over. After all this, they gave me an address to send it to. They even got my name wrong. I will be sending it out just cause I spent so much money on it. Dont ever expect on getting it fixed none the less back. You have to even pay them before you do anything. For now I paid 24.00 before I even got a repair number.
I went out and bought me a tomtom 720. Love it!!! so please dont buy any magellan product. Dont say I didnt warn you

Unit OK, customer service, worst in the industry
by sdgrossman1 ,Dec 17 '07
Pros: Nice unit, without doing upgrade.
Cons: Worst customer service ever received from any company on any product.
I liked the unit, although for the money, the new Tom Tom looks like it has more features.

The unit has a tendency to lock up from time to time.

The main problem came when it was time to do the annual upgrade.

I will not bore you with the nasty details, but the upgrade fried the unit.

Was returned to Magellan (ATC Logistics & Electronics) who could not repair the unit.

After dozens of phone calls and hours on-hold they offered me Maestro 4250, which retails for $150 less than the 6000T.

I am also out the return shipping (which the said they would pay for), as well as the cost for the failed upgrade.

Magellan - the worst tech support ever
by denvertechguy ,Nov 02 '07
Pros: so fed up, can't think of any
Cons: support, warranty, customer service, device locks up every couple of weeks and loses saved addresses.
Don't even consider a Magellan GPS. They have the worst customer service I have ever experienced in any industry. I have a $600 device (6000T) that has been dead for two months now because of a bad power cord. I was told 8 weeks ago I would get a replacement in the mail in 7 days. Calling one to two times a week for the last 6 weeks has not helped either. And they won't let you speak to a supervisor -- call backs after asking for the third time for a call back and never getting one, I gave up.

Here is my experience: http://www.itedge.net/blog/2007/10/31/magellan-has-the-worst-technnical-support/
