I have a basic Garmin Nuvi that I bought Las Vegas at Best Buy for $250 in2008.
That model is discontinued but now the replacement model has a larger screen,more features and costs about $99I am told.
They keep getting bigger nicer and cheaper.
I have heard that3D building displays on the screen are soon to come, if not here already.
They are replacing maps!!! I have heard that in 2 years or less the AAA won't giver out maps at their offices anymore becausethey are being discntinued.
I have found the programs in them to be about 95% accurate but when I know they are making a mistake I just ignore them, and the voice says "recaculating" enough times until she and I agree on the route and the"recalculating" stops.
TomTom is another acceptable one,as is Magellan,so I have heard.
I have 3 way splitters in both my cars and alway use them.
Cell phome charger
SatNav (Garmin Nuvi)
Valentine One RADAR DETECTOR
All plugged in.
I also have a plug to put in a camera basttery charger in if I need it and the phone is charged up.
Works wonderfully for me on my trips. I wouldn't travel without any of this.
Thinking o getting a CB for my next XCtrip but I don't speak Mexican so channel 19 is probably going to pretty much be a waste of time, so a CB shop owner in the Calfiornia desert told me about a year ago.
