Get big-time navigation and mapping with the large screen nüvi 5000.

It features a whopping 5.2 inch display, preloaded maps, an FM transmitter and lots of entertainment features for fun on the open road.
See Even More
With nüvi 5000's large, clear display, you won’t miss a thing. View map detail,
driving directions, photos, play games and more in bright, brilliant color. Its
sunlight-readable, 5.2-inch display is easy to read and gives you an extended
view of your surroundings. nüvi 5000 also includes a composite video input so
you can connect it to a rear-view camera for backing up safely.
Navigate With Ease
nüvi 5000 comes with preloaded City Navigator NT street maps and millions of
points of interest (POIs) such as hotels, restaurants, fuel stations, ATMs and
more. Touch the color screen to enter a destination, and nüvi takes you there
with 2-D or 3-D maps and turn-by-turn voice directions. It even announces the
name of exits and streets so you never have to take your eyes off the road, and
its 3-D digital elevation map view gives you fair warning of grade changes. nüvi
5000 also accepts custom points of interest, such as school zones and safety
cameras and lets you set proximity alerts to warn you of upcoming POIs.
Where Am I?
In the event of an emergency, nüvi’s "Where Am I?" feature helps find the
closest hospitals, police stations, fuel stations, nearest address and
intersection. Also see your exact latitude and longitude coordinates.
Plan Ahead
nüvi 5000 includes advanced navigational features to take the worry out of
traveling. With route planning, you can save 10 routes, specify via points and
preview simulated turns on the 5000's wide screen. In addition, nüvi 5000
automatically sorts multiple destinations to provide an efficient route for
errands or deliveries. It also displays speed limits for highways and
Interstates. A trip log provides an electronic breadcrumb trail of up to 10,000
points, so you can see where you've been on the map.
