My 255w just dead... Planning to find a replacement for it.
Is that true that there are many issues in 52LM such as auto reboot, hanging, lagging during recalculation, space issues?
how about 42LM?

Re: 42LM and 52LM
As for the time required for satellite lock, we found that this tended to vary at different times but usually takes less than a minute. Route recalculation was usually very quickly executed, but we did face several instances where the device abruptly shut down or restarted itself while halfway navigating a route.

It is very fond of resetting itself/rebooting as it pleases and hang after about 1/2 hour of usage. It is very frustrating to use. I have upgraded to the latest firmware but the problems mentioned still persist. In short, don't buy this GPS until Garmin post a newer upgrade.
Totally agree with you. The newest version software also got the same problem. When the time routing to a place will always lag and i already sent the device to warranty 2 times. Still got the same problem.
