The Dynamic Parking feature helps you locate parking areas close to your destination.

Covered are 42 major metropolitan areas and 79 airports in North America with details about the garage, including addresses, phone number, capacities, size regulations and prices (early-bird, evening, holiday, specials, etc.).
Garmin Tracker allows you to track the location of your nüvi on the Garmin website or with the Tracker app, so your friends and family can see where you’re headed. It is also possible to send a link via Facebook, Twitter or email to track you as you travel with your Nuvi.
Lastly, Smartphone Link now lets you send locations and addresses from Android’s Google Maps to your Nuvi. You can simply click on an address in Google Maps to open a pop-up window that will allow you to send it to your Nuvi via Smartphone Link.
