I dont think that many people here have this unit .

I think you better browse around official TT-forums , much more info there on both this device and NAV4 in general .

Me personally , i would prefer to wait until NAV5 becomes public available .

Official Link ?

Ps: MayBe, it the same like the 5150 , but for the USA Market....i think...no difference by Maps in the Store....a Nav4 Device

5250 is similar shape to Go 400.. On screenshots the menu looks similar. I own GO 400 and don't like it. For me is not user friendly.
So, my question is, how owner think about new menu in truck navigation. Can add own POI, etc...

Further no different then 400 or any other .

So, 5150 may be more user friendly... Menu more similar to classic one. Both have lifetime maps upgrade, 5150 no card slot but Bluetooth and, 5250 card slot but no Bluetooth and rubbish menu...
This is, what I think... Never had 5150 or 5250.

My advice , browse official TTforums , nothing but problems .

Why you think they are making the switch to Android core ?
Not for nothing , as the current system is no good .

The new systems ( NAV5 ) have WiFi , card-slot , sim-slot , bluetooth .

Sure NAV4 is improved over NAV3 , but what you gain ?
Truck-nav is same as normal version , exept for truck-routes there is no different in core .

I don't have time to browse all forums, all infos from you are new for me (NAV5, android, etc.)
My GO750 after flight from my cab is unwell... (broken body, still working but lose signal every few minutes).
It's time to buy new one...
I've got regular runs to regular customers, so I don't use it often. Usually for ETA or if need to find diversion.

The truck routes is the think that make me feel better, more safe in new, unknow area. ;-)

Me , i would go for a second hand NAV2 , I did that too ( GO750 LIVE actually )

But if lifetime maps make feel comfortable then might go for the 5250 .
Hope you dont regret after two years from now .
