Garmin XT address issues, Google Local search wrong?
Has anyone had any issues with garmin XT and google local search? If I type in 5 address' of friends, 2 maybe correct, and the other 3 will be way off. Atleast 6 or 7 houses off. I also tried using google local. The information for my area atleast is very spotty. Did a simple search for walmart, and its off by 3miles. DId another search for the chili's thats in the walmart parking lot, and its off the same 3miles in the same location. So it shows them together but in the totally wrong spot.

Now for just driving, the gps location is spot on. I bought it off ebay but wouldn't think this had anything to do with it. It is an original copy.

Any ideas?
