The addition of XM Traffic,
Weather and Radio services to your compatible
Garmin makes driving with GPS essential, even if
you know where you're going. With an optional
subscription to XM NavTraffic™, your Garmin
notifies you of accidents, road construction,
and weather-related traffic delays before they
are encountered, and then offers an alternate
route. XM WX Weather™ brings real-time, animated
weather data directly to your unit, so you can
steer clear of bad weather. Add XM Satellite
Radio to the mix for hours of commercial-free
listening enjoyment.
Various combinations of
traffic, weather and radio services are
available for your compatible marine, aviation
and automotive Garmin GPS products. See below
for more information.
