Which GPS should I get?

[PocketAces]

I need to pick up a GPS. I'd like one that I could move from my car to my wife's.

Which one should I get?

Is there installation required?


Is there a monthly or year subscription cost?

I like Garmin products. Great price on this one.

Get a GARMIN. Works right out of the box, can be moved car-to-car with easy suction mount, and most of all they are so user friendly even wives can use them! Nothing to download unless you want to upgrade maps in a couple of years. Just make sure you take it with you when you leave your vehicle 'cause they're a hot item for thieves!!

Our garmin nuvi 350, 1 and a half years old, just broke (can't find satellites). They want me to pay as much as I did to buy it to have them fix it :sadwave:

After researching the issue it seems to happen frequently. 3 weeks ago I would have highly recommended it but now I would beware.

Plus I want to be able to mark fishing spots at the cottage.

i was a salesman for many years and can understand the need for gps. otherwise, i do not understand.

i've had onstar for about 8 years and never really needed it. been meaning to cancel it for a long time now. i think they bill me yearly.

who knows, they're toast.

You are a lucky man.

 

[MadJack]

[saint]

why do you need one? :shrug:

wife is a drug rep, has to visit a ton of offices all over town and never the same route in the same day.

 

[PocketAces]

what do you sell?

I'm a "Systems Consultant". Basically I sell computer network infrastructure. Servers, switches, routers and IP phone systems. I've been doing a lot of network security audits as well.

We also staff about 30 developers. Many of my customers hire us to develop custom software applications and hosting.

So basically I'm a computer sales guy.
