Thank you very much for this video. It helps a lot to be able to decide and I already decided on this GPS, including the microSD card & case. 😊
The thirst of curiosity can only be quenched by knowledge. I’m glad it helped you.
This was very helpful, Brownie. I just got my new Garmin Drive Drivecam and I am so thrilled!
Noodley, it is so much better than a smartphone!!! Enjoy!
Like you, I do extensive research before I buy just about anything. Thank you for taking the time to create this video. You answered all of my questions, including ones I didn’t even know to ask!
The memory card was a huge concern of mine, and as I’m sure you’re aware of, not all memory cards are designed for dash cams, so they won’t all work.
You pointed me in the right direction to a dash cam optimized memory card. Thanks a bunch! I plan to get one for sure!
Thanks Bradley, good research is based on good science, and science never lies.
Thank you so much for this review. Appreciate it.
Good job reviewing this gps. I got the drivesmart 86. They are excellent and better than using the phone.
Thanks Jesus, there is definitely a lot of steps to setting one up. Once it done though, it’s worth it, and I love all the features.
Thanks very much for this very helpful video, I’m sure I’ll refer to it again. You were very easy to understand.
Thanks DG ! I appreciate it!

Great video, it's nice to see the functions of a device, which most reviewers don't show
Thank you Day! It definitely has some nice features!
@@PompanoBrownie I just accidentally bought 2 of these from Best Buy. I opened one and it had severe screen responsiveness issues. It took 10 or more presses on the screen buttons. Or it would misread presses and do the wrong thing. Cleaning didn't help. I opened the other one, same thing. Did you experience this?
Day, I never had any of those problems. Return both and buy from a different vendor. Make sure you are not using a skin cream that could cause this.
Excellent video. I'm getting my first Garmin.
Kim, the Garmin DriveSmart models allow doing map updates over wifi. A little less work than having to use your computer and a USB cable and Garmin express software. Here’s a decent model with that feature. The DriveSmart 65 for around 200 bucks.

The DriveSmart 66 is a bit newer with a higher resolution screen and Alexa features built in. It’s around 250.00 amzn.to/43svgwu
Good review. I am considering this over a Carplay unit.
I love mine. Thank you
interesting I hve a gps in the car but i still use an older garmin on occaion. I also have a garmin dashcam but it is nearing end of life. I might look at one of these !
Very nice video. Surly you worked hard to make this long clip which covers everything. Windshield mounting mostly keep on falling if outside temperature high. Did you find this problem often? What would be other alternative? For SUVs you select car or van? Thank you.
You could try using a silicone lubricant gel on the suction cup.

You don’t want to use petroleum based on rubber. I would set the taller setting for an SUV.
Nice job. Your video is very helpful. I'm thinking more on the Drivesmart 86 though because of the higher resolution and option of portrait mode. 8" screen might be bigger than I need or want though, so yours isn't a bad choice. I'm guessing the 86 wasn't out yet when you did this video or something, since you called the 76 the flagship.
Carl, I think what I meant by that is my model is the only one that has a integrated Dash Cam. I’m glad it helped you, I’m sure all of the configuration steps would be the same.
@@PompanoBrownie Thanks for reply. I just ordered a few minutes ago. Got the case too, based on your good tip. Both the DriveSmart 86, and Dashcam Mini 2 are currently on sale. Watched you whole video. Yours was best personal review I found anywhere, but I was also very impressed with Garmin's own videos. They do a great job on these and on the many design aspects of their nav units. They are a pleasure to use. Thanks again!
Glad I could help Carl! Now go travel!
Cool, I live in Clay..
Patrick, must be uncomfortable waking up with that cold, sticky soil on your feet… but to each their own. Lol. I’m in Brewerton.
Can you also clearly read the text on license plates and signs?
The Camera Resolution is 1080p so signs are definitely readable, and license plates would have to be within approximately 6 Meters (18 Feet).
Does the video recording feature show image on screen while the video is being recorded
Mac, no it does not.
I find it odd that you can't store mp3s on the micro sd and play music while you're driving. It's only possible to play music over Bluetooth.
A minor point, but if you have an Android phone with Google maps you can download the complete map for any area - even the entire US if you have enough storage. I have my state and most of the surrounding areas downloaded, so if I lose cell phone coverage, I can just rely upon the GPS signal - just like the Garmin.
There no doubt that today’s Smartphone’s have a lot of ability. I prefer not having to remember to download maps in advance. Especially if I’m confronted with a emergency and have to rush someone to a hospital.
@@PompanoBrownie I do understand your trepidation, however, with Google you just have to download the maps once - and it will automatically download updates when you are on Wi-Fi (or if you're on an unlimited cell data system) as roads are added or diverted. You don't have to remember to do anything again - not unlike Garmin. Don't get me wrong, I do like Garmin. I added one to my older daily driver to replace my outdated GPS. However, for ease of use, phone and music integration, I prefer Google.
That’s what I love about America. We are allowed to choose our own path. (Within the confines of the law of course… lol)
@@PompanoBrownie Well, that's why those things post the speed limits, also :)
What about real addresses instead of Mc.Donald's. Do they work on the voice command 100% of the time? cheers
Yes you can .. just like any voice dictation software you have to enunciate perfectly and better if your stopped while doing it. Personally I like using the Garmin Drive App on my smartphone and it will load the address the next time GPS fires up and App is running.
Any alternatives to windshield mounting? I know the display doesn't flop in you flip it. I'm wondering how to rig something so I don't. have to go with the steep distant slant of the windshield.
Personally, I’d stick with the windshield. Otherwise your eyes will be too far removed from the road.
Can you add a rear cam to the unit? Thanks
Shan , the Garmin BC 40 and BC 50 are compatible rear view cameras that work with the DriveCam 76 GPS.
Now that you’ve used this since you’ve made the video or longer, how is it GPS going Sir. I’m thinking of the 86 model.
Cheers NZ.
I love my DriveCam. I think having the dash cam is a real plus in the event of an accident and having proof of what occurred. The voice commands and the app on your phone make it a breeze to input a destination. The real-time traffic has alerted me to alternative routes in traffic jams too. Go for it, you won’t regret it.
So this garmin can record both camera and maps
The DriveCam automatically saves video of incidents. GPS data shows when and where events occurred. It doesn't actually record the Map, it records the lattitude and longitude coordinates and the speed of the vehicle in miles per hour.
How do you put the picture in picture on? I’ve seen where the left half of the screen is that like cartoon map and the upper right will be real time Road view. I saw that you put a picture and picture on your own for the video, but I mean, how does the Garmin do it?
I did that through my video editing software so you could see where I was during the trip. You will not have that capability on the Garmin.
@@PompanoBrownie 😫
Do you feel this is the best gps available? Dash cam is a must!
I think it is the best GPS with integrated Dash Cam. Garmin invented gps technology for automobiles.
can another rear dash cam say 47,57,67W be paired with this one?
The Garmin BC40 and BC50 rear view cameras are compatible with the Drivecam 76 . I called Garmin Tech Support to verify.

How can we add truck height?
You can only add Truck height to models that support it.
