The difference betweeen say GarminXT & CoPilot 7 which don't have TTS & igo that does is this: igo will say for instance " turn left onto Elmwood Avenue" where Garmin would say "make the next left in 200' " I have systems that do it both ways & I do NOT consider TTS something that's really necessary.

GarminXT is BY FAR my favorite PPC NAV program & it does not have TTS.

That was the kind of answer I was looking for. I think people got off topic from my original question, or maybe I didn't phrase it right. All I wanted was something that says "turn left here." I don't care if it told me the name of the street.

So the answer is no, right? TTS does NOT mean it will say "turn left here." TTS means it will say "turn left on elmwood" right? Which is what I don't care about it all. I think I'm gonna give garmin or tomtom a try since now I believe they actually do what I want.

I wanted spoken turn by turn, not TTS, and from what I'm getting from your post jmorton, most all do that at least.

Thank you jmorton.
