Garmin GPS
I have always wanted to try a GPS unit and I finally got one.I am pretty impressed with all this thing can do. I mounted it to the dash right above the radio. It has an FM transmitter so I can play MP3's on my radio and make a hands free call and listen through the truck speakers. Just thought I would share. I also found it on the net and paid 450 which is alot, but locally it 700.

RE: Garmin GPS
I have a 750. You're right, they're pretty cool. I've only really needed one once in the last few years, so it's still a bit of an extravagance. A trip to Orlando next month will be the first real test. It does suggest some pretty strange in the routes it chooses around home. It also wants me to use the interstate to go to Panama City when a "surface" road is the shorter route.

I bought a magellan 3225, you can only get em at costco. i love it. Now that i have traveled with it, i hardly use the ol paper map. it's really handy. I liked the 3225 cause i to got rid of mexico and added more POI's for N.America and voice direction.
It doesnt have the mp3/bluetooth etc. that would be nice.

I had a hand held Garmin GPS that I bought about seven years ago. Used it alot to mark brush piles and such for fishing bass tourneys. Lost it on a camping/canoing trip when my canoe hit an underwater stump and flipped in some fast moving swollen waters on the Altamaha River in south Ga. about 5 years ago. Anybody finds it, it's mine...
