im sick of mapquest always getting me lost. since the price of gps systems has gone down a fair bit, im thinking of picking one up. any recommendations? im looking for something in the 200$ range. so far i think i like the mio digiwalker c220 the best.

Just one word of advice about whatever brand you get - most of them mount with a suction-cup bracket that loses it's "suck" after a period of time in an alternately hot/cold car. Even the smaller units are heavy enough to put stress on the suction cup mount. I've got a Garmin c330, have had it for about 2 years, and have had to replace the suction cup mount twice. Finally went with a mount that just sits on your dash - sort of like a beanbag with feet.
Other than the mount, I love the Garmin! Samantha |
