Garmin nüvi 350 Car GPS Receiver

I bought one for my wife last year for Christmas, and we both loved it...so this year when I was looking at getting a new car, I decided to save roughly $1000 on the radio/navigation system that comes in most new cars....that you have to pay a monthly fee for most to use the Nav feature. For the money the Nuvi 350 is a great deal. And for a small price of $50.00 at Wal-Mart for the CD to update the maps(cheaper than thru Garmin...sorry) you can have the current maps....sure this model doean't have "real time" traffic updates, but then thats why they put up the pretty orange signs, right? Plus when planning a trip you can get onto any states web-site and look up road work projects and use the Nuvi to plan around it accordingly. To easy. Strongly recommend this one for any traveler....local or long distance. Easy to use and great picture. I actually think its better than the Tom-Tom....but I've been using Garmin GPS's for a few years now....still have the first Rhino I bought and it works great...Anyway, save yourself some issues and get this. You'll never believe how you got along without it.
