Title: GPS for vehicle Help!!!
Post by: Slider 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?
