Garmin StreetPilot 7200 GPS Receiver

Does your GPS disappear amid the clutter on your dashboard? Are you tired of straining to see three-inch and five-inch screens? The Garmin StreetPilot 7200's huge 7-inch touch-screen display means you'll always see where you're going - even from the back of the bus. Designed for larger vehicles such as RVs, semi-trucks, and buses, the StreetPilot 7200 is a premium automotive unit that comes preloaded with City Navigator NT detailed maps and display navigation, entertainment, traffic and weather on a grand sunlight-readable display.

Traffic

With the purchase of an optional sensor, the StreetPilot 7200 notifies you of accidents, road construction, and weather-related traffic delays before they are encountered, and then offer an alternate route. This optional traffic management capability makes driving with GPS essential, even if you know where you're going.

Traffic is delivered to the 7000 series through the GTM 10, GTM 12 or GXM 30 antenna (purchased separately). Get traffic alerts broadcasted by Clear Channel in select U.S. cities with the GTM 10 or GTM 12 FM TMC traffic receiver. Traffic services accessed with the GXM 30 Smart Antenna require a subsription to XM NavTraffic.

Weather

View real-time weather conditions with the optional GXM 30 Smart Antenna and a XM NavTraffic subscription. Find out the local forecast for your route or campsite down the road. Available weather information includes current conditions, city forecasts, and warnings for tornados, thunderstorms, and floods.

Entertainment

The StreetPilot 7200 also includes a host of features to keep you entertained during your travels, including an internal MP3 player, XM radio, and audio books. The built-in MP3 player lets users browse music by artist, album, song, or genre. Music can be loaded onto an SD card and is "drag-and-drop" easy - no special software is required. The XM Radio (with the optional GXM 30 Smart Antenna and XM Satellite Radio subscription) features 150-plus channels of commercial-free music, sports, news, talk, and entertainment. The StreetPilot 7200 is also compatible with www.audible.com, a subscription-based audio book service. All music or speech files can be emitted over the vehicle's existing speakers, through the StreetPilot's built-in FM wireless transmitter or via the unit's headphone/line-out jack. The entertainment audio is muted when navigation instructions are given.

Street Navigator

The StreetPilot 7200 contains all of the features you've come to know and love in a Garmin, including intuitive navigation with automatic route calculation; voice-prompted, turn-by-turn directions; 2D or 3D map view; and automatic rerouting if a motorist strays off course. The unit speaks street names, so users will know to "turn right on Main Street." Enter a series of destinations, and the unit will automatically sort them to provide an efficient route. With its POI Loader software, Garmin has also made it possible for customers to augment pre-loaded maps with custom POIs such as school zones and safety cameras.

The face of the StreetPilot 7200 only has one button - an on/off switch. The side and back of the unit houses integrated internal speaker, mini USB port, AV input, SD card slot and 3.5 mm audio jack. A wireless infrared alphanumeric remote control that allows easy operation of the device from a distance is standard equipment.
