Another useless FalconGuy post...

Someone should reset his post count.


Anyway, the Magellan ones are good. If you want an "expert" opinion, RobAGD knows a lot about GPS units.

I have a Garmin eTrex. It's not great, but it works. I have it for geocaching, though, not driving. It doesn't have maps or anything.

I was being truthful, it does everything it advertises well... but thats not a WHOLE lot

just in case you were wondering THORDIC I actually own one

I have the 315, and it takes a bit of use to figure the whole thing out. I love mine especially for marking sites when I go scuba diving. I find a place I like to dive I then mark the point and then I can return when ever I want. One of the problms with this is these units are not as accurate as the military ones(for obvious reasons...) so it brings you with in 50 - 100ft of the spot. If you are thinking trying this "geo-caching",(sp?) you will have to look around a little before you find what you're looking for. But that's the fun right? I enjoy using mine, although it's not as often as I would like...

I say buy it, you'll enjoy it. Have fun. If you have any ?? PM me.

If you actually own one, your post could have a been a little more helpful than "yep".

If you ever fly there are some awsome full-color moving map displays for aviation out there, if you have $1300+.
