From the company that brought you the celebrity GPS voices of Mr. T, Gary Busey, and Flavor Flav, comes this hilarious and familiar character with a universal story.

Be it a mother, grandmother, great aunt, sister, girlfriend, or wife, just about everyone has a Nervous Nancy in their life, and now drivers all over the world can bring her with them wherever they go. Like all NavTones GPS voices, Nervous Nancy is programmed to provide flawless (if uncertain) driving instructions, along with randomized commentary about the route, destination, upcoming turns, and the like. From the moment the route is calculated, Nancy makes her presence known with confidence-inspiring phrases such as "I hope you know where you're going," or "I'll help you if I can." Later along the route, Nancy indicates she might have had help in her improving self esteem when she confesses "one of the pills just kicked in."

Nervous Nancy is compatible with most Garmin nuvi portable GPS devices and she provides endless miles of entertainment for drivers and passengers alike. Just like all exclusive NavTones voices for Garmin GPS, the more her voice is used, the more Nancy says.
