One feature I like about TomTom that Garmin doesn’t offer is a pop up that asks you if you want to avoid Toll Road, etc. When you plot a route on TomTom, if there is a Toll road, TomTom will ask you if you want to include the Toll Road on your route, with my Garmin, I have to go into avoidances and predetermine if I want to avoid a toll road or not, If I want to avoid a toll road, I have to block it in the avoidance menu then it’s blocked permanently unless I return to the avoidance menu and change it.
I like to have the option to avoid it when I plan the route. Some times I may want to avoid Toll Roads on a certain route, and other times I may not want to. It’s just a hassle to go in and set my preference prior to entering the route instead of just having it ask me, at the time I enter my route if I want to avoid it.
Also, from what I understand with Garmin Traffic, if there’s a sizeable delay, the unit will automatically reroute you instead of giving you the option to stay on the route you’re on or chose the new route.
TomTom gives you this option.
