Please recommend a portable GPS system
for cars
it doesn't need to be top of the line, but I do like the touch-screen feature.
TY!

Re: Please recommend a portable GPS system
I researched a lot and went with the Garmin. It has the touch screen and so far, we really love it. Took it up to Maine and it really worked for us well.

Re: Please recommend a portable GPS system
My DH is into these toys so I've used alot  I LOVE the Garmins.. hated the TomToms and Magellans... i found the Garmins to be the easiest to use and the most accurate... right now I have a Nuvi 660 and it's perfect!

Re: Please recommend a portable GPS system
This will be my xmas gift to DH. Where can you find the Garmin (he was looking at the magellan, but if most of you recommend Garmin, maybe that would be the better route).

Re: Please recommend a portable GPS system
My friend has a Tom Tom 1XL Portable touch screen i think its about $349 -- but what makes it stand out among others is that it gives you up to date traffic & weather updates.
We used it to go upstate in the boondocks and it was working GREAT even up in the mountains!
I think best buy has a sale on it right now

Re: Please recommend a portable GPS system
Dad has a Magellan that he got at Radio Shack for $199. It does the job. He loves it. I heard the Tom Tom is excellent.
My next car will have built in navigation.
