GPS for vehicle Help!!!
« on: May 26, 2009, 04:13:41 PM »
I'm looking at a GPS for a vehicle. I will probably purchase one at Costco tomorrow. I'm looking for a basic model? I don't get lost easily? I would use it to find locations while I'm on the road. Tom tom? Garmin? Magellan? If it had speach that would be a plus. Any Help?

the garmin nuvi's were pretty popular to add to folks new rigs at the dealership...simple and portable too for a few hundred bucks.

After using my 50/50 and throwing out the 2 discontinued models, I polled the audience and read the reviews. I took Jackelopes advice and purchased the Nuvi!!!  ;)
