So you have your Garmin 660 and you're very pleased with the way it works. You haven't gotten lost in quite some time now. But you seem to recall that one of the many desirable features of this model is that it is supposed to say the street names as it guides you to your destination. So why doesn't yours do it? The answer is quite simple. By following the steps below, you can easily activate this feature.
