I bought the Garmin RV 795 because I have a 24' travel trailer and Google Maps is notorious for misrouting travelers into tight spaces. On a few trips it routed me incorrectly into places that were difficult to get out of in my pickup truck alone and would have been a nightmare with a travel trailer. So far, the RV 795 has only directed me on roads where a trailer can safely be towed. You need a lot of information about your trailer and tow vehicle to set this up but the information is readily available online. You'll need to know the width, height, and weight of your trailer, the weight and length of your tow vehicle, and the total length of the trailer and tow vehicle. You can create profiles for multiple vehicles & combinations so it's easy to switch from towing a trailer to tow vehicle only. The user interface takes a little getting used to but it's not terribly difficult. By default you cannot enter or change destination or settings while moving. That is good for the driver (eyes on the road, please!) but you can disable that so the passenger can make updates while the vehicle is in motion. I used the enclosed suction cup to mount the RV 795 on my windshield just below the rearview mirror. I haven't had a problem with the device attached to the mount but I remove and hide it when parked and twice the mount fell off of the windshield. Only seems to happen when the RV 795 is not on the mount. The Garmin makes it easy to find gas stations. It lists (most of) them in order of distance. The one thing to watch for is that the Garmin cannot tell you if a particular station has the space needed when towing a longer trailer. Best to follow the old rule of thumb when towing: start looking for a gas station when you get to half a tank. That will give you some slack if getting to, into, or out of the nearest gas station would be too difficult. It also has a long list of Campgrounds, State Parks, and RV parks. Updating the info is easy although it can be a bit cumbersome. It updates over wifi. If you have a hotspot on your phone you can use that but it might take quite a while. It works well with home wifi IF you have a way to power the RV 795. I used a ham radio power supply with a cigarette lighter plug like the one that powers the RV 795 while traveling. It would be nice if Garmin sold a power supply specifically for use at home with their GPS systems. The RV 795 give you a lot of information while you are traveling. In addition to directions, it will track your speed vs. the posted limit. Good for people with a lead foot! It also warns about upcoming sharp bends in the road. In my experience it was overly cautious about "sharp bend" warnings but I prefer that to being surprised. There are many other features such as satellite imagery that I've just begun to experiment with. Overall, this is a very useful aid for traveling in a recreational vehicle, especially if you are towing.

Overall, I am extremely pleased. I have used RV-specific GPSs from Garmin for quite a few years, so this one continues the line of very good usability for an RV. This is larger than my previous models, and that makes it easier to see in my motorhome. It connects well with my iPhone, which adds to its functionality. There are just a couple of “heads up” for a perspective buyer, neither of which is a stopper. First, even with my years of Garmin experience, there was still a pretty steep learning curve. Even after a few trips, I have to think about how to get the device to do what I want. That will come, but don’t expect to take it out of the box and have it feel as comfortable as as an old pair of slippers, Second, it is Android based, which means a few features are not available on Mac operating systems. Just one example, with my Mac, I can’t look inside the 895 and see the file structure and just add new items to the appropriate folder. If you have a Windows-based computer, that should be no problem. For me in the Mac world, it’s not a real problem. I just use WiFi to send routes or waypoints to the 895. I only mention it because when I first got mine, it threw me for a bit of a loop not being able to get to the files on the 895 until Garmin support told me about the Android base, and the resulting limitations for Mac. No biggie. There is, as I said, an easy work-around, but I wanted other Mac users to know about this little quirk. Even with all of this, I am very glad I bought this and I recommended it to my son, who also drives an RV.

I like this unit. Garmin reliably routes me on the safest routes compatible with my RV size, height, and weight. The dash cam is easy to use and integral to the unit. The database of RV Parks, rest stops, fuel stops, etc., is comprehensive and valuable. However, I wish Garmin had a user-friendly trip-planning app and better customer service.

This Garmin has a large, beautiful screen, and because of its size, it is very easy to touch and move the map while driving. However I did find I had trouble finding a suitable location to mount it using the supplied suction cup mount. For your reference, I placed this in a class B Sprinter RV and ended up using the most forward location on the driver side door, in such a way as to not block my side view mirrors. It just barely worked. Barely. As you can imagine, opening the drivers' door was now limited to the range of the power cable which I had connected above and behind the drivers' seat (routed along the top of the door, through the grab handle, and into a cigarette outlet above and behind my seat.) Pros: *Large screen, good audio volume for directions (Garmin was about 20"/ 51cm away from my head). *I really appreciated the customization for the vehicle height, weight, length, and width. We avoided all routes with low clearance bridges!! *The magnetic/charging suction cup mount was sturdy and held the unit firmly in place. * Easy sharing of GPX files over WiFi: I planned a route on an iPad using the InRoute app (which also has vehicle size customization), and was able to send over the GPX file to the Garmin very easily when I had Wifi service. The route stored in the "Route Planner" tab is easy to find and select for navigating. *The ability to add all sorts of map information along the route: Fuel, "trendy places", campgrounds, places to stay, eat, etc. Cons: *The size of the Garmin itself! The entire body measures 11" / 28cm diagonal. *Those of you new to Garmin products, as I am, may find the learning curve for inputting info a little less than intuitive. *Complete user manual is online. *Cost. If you have enough space for a dash mount -without blocking your view out the windshield- this may be the unit for you. Personally, I will be returning this and selecting a smaller unit which still allows for setting vehicle height etc, parameters. Safe travels!

I have only tested it locally so far but it has a bit of a learning curve. Not as intuitive as Google Maps in that you have to pick the city of your destination first, then next page to enter street number, then next page for the street name. If you don’t select the city first, it will say “no matches found” which is somewhat annoying. Could just be that the operator doesn’t know what he’s doing yet !! Screen size is plenty big, and graphics are clear. It has lots of features for finding gas, restaurants, hotels etc. and you can look ahead for choices based on time. (ie: coffee shop 30 minutes ahead) RV trip to FLA soon to work out the kinks !

If you own an RV and don’t have a dash cam already then this is the GPS to have. Harming is a very reliable brand (I have two other units in two different vehicles and have never had one fail) I tried several different GPS apps on my phone and none of them worked well particularly if you have no cell coverage. The Garmin RV cam just does what it was designed to do.

Love this GPS, the large screen makes it easy to read and I love the points of interest feature.

Worked exactly as advertised. Easy to set up, easy to use, and easy to understand. Not for everyday use but for those days hauling the RV it's perfect.
