I have been directionally challenged most of my life, hubby says I couldn't find my way out of a paper bag.   I mentioned to my son that I would like a GPS device for my car.  I have been taking trips back to Michigan to visit family and got lost the last time I went up there.  My son evidently told my husband  I had mentioned  I liked the Garmin Nuvi which I h...

After reading all the rave reviews about Garmin Nuvi 350, I decided to purchase it for my personal and business trip purposes. And I really love it. I have been using it wherever I go during vacation and city trips. It is very well-designed and compact which can easily fit in your pocket.  Very bright LCD screen and readable at every angle with text-to-speech feature. The user interface is...

The Garmin Nuvi 350 is a wonderful GPS system.  Everything needed to start using it is enclosed in the box, nothing else to buy.  Within 10 min. I had my home location set and one route saved in my favorites.  Very user friendly, as I had no experience with any other GPS system and I was able to figure this one out in no time.  The size is great with it being small enough th...

My mother in law has a Garmin and has been very pleased with the results. It has a touch screen and is very easy to use. They were cautious with it at first, only using it to get to places that they were familiar with, but have since branched out and are depending on it to get them wherever they need to go. The interface is user friendly and the speaker is very clear so you don’t have to ...

The Garmin Nuvi 760 has many interesting and helpful features besides just providing directions. Audio playback, customizable map vehicles, and many other features make extended car trips much more pleasurable.When I received my Nuvi this holiday season, I was delighted to see the unit was preloaded with Garmin’s latest and greatest maps. The 2009 edition hasn’t steered me wrong yet...

The Garmin Nuvi 350 is a great GPS for the beginner which I am.  It was ready to go right out of the box, all you had to do is charge it up or plug it into your car and away you go.  It was spot on accurate in providing directions to the address I specified.  The voice alert feature is awesome, it not only tells you about 200 feet prior to turning but right before you need to tur...

I HATE being lost... and I am worse than a man when it comes to asking direction!  Garmin to the rescue.  I have had my Nuvi for slightly more than a year now, and barely a week goes by without it being pressed into use.    I use it both on vacations out of state, as well as around town, when trying to find a new destination and when trying to avoid heavy traffic. I hav...

The Garmin GPS is a great little device for such things as the clear easy to read touch display screen and this particular model is great for the avid traveler even if they are using it on something like an ATV, motorbike or even ski doo.  The unit is waterproof which helps a great deal when you are on one of these machines in the event you are hit by a sudden rain shower or snow storm.&nb...

Garmin Nuvi 350 This is the first model in the Garmin line with advanced features and portable utility that provides talking voice directions.It is lightweight, portable, and has a great color touch screen system.It allows for and includes a car charger, USB connection, and a standard plug for recharge.  I found connecting to the internet using USB to be easy and quick.  There are oft...

When we lived in Europe, my husband bought one of those basic GPS systems because he had to travel through several countries to get to his maintenance sites. His main job was to maintain some very expensive equipment for NATO countries. We had a great time going to Holland, Germany, and other countries.Anyway, this GPS helped him to map his trip from Germany to Holland and in fact made it easie...

the Garmin Nuvi 5000 is an amazing GPS system. This system makes it veryy easy to travel especially for people like me who drive alot, it makes it impossible to be lost. It has a nice screen size a 5.2" screen very bright but doesnt have a battery. Its stylish and looks good in any car. The directions it gives you are very acurate, and short. It has extra features such as a picture viewer ...

What do you get a guy who has everything? I started thinking about a Christmas gift for my fiance in the summer because he has everything! One day he asked his father if he could borrow his GPS unit and upon arriving home he was pretty impressed on how well it worked, so there it was... his Christmas gift... a GPS! But which one?A Best Buy store opened in September...

OK, this is one of those purchases I fought because I just did not see it as being necessary but I will admit, I was wrong.   My husband has wanted a GPS system for a while now and he told himself that he was not going to rush out to get one but if they had a really good deal on one for black Friday and it was still there when he got to the store, he would buy it. The system he c...

While planning for a recent cross country trip, I started to think about getting a GPS unit.  I was wavering because I could get by with free maps from AAA and a bit of preparation before each leg of the trip. Finally, I decided that at $150 it would be worth buying a Garmin Nuvi 260W (with Costco's liberal return policy, I could alway take it back after my trip if I did not like it).&...

When I moved to Oregon last year with my husband, I didn't know where in the world I was going, what streets were one way, and the easiest route to my new job, so I borrowed my sister's Tom Tom (GPS) for about 6 months. My dad came out to visit us shortly before Christmas and realized that I was using my sister's GPS and that I needed one for myself. About 2 weeks later the Garmin c...

Last Black Friday at 5:30am I was awaiting out in the cold with everyone else to get into My local Best Buy to get a Garmin Nuvi 200 Gps system which I was one of the first ones in the store and managed to get my hands on 2 of them one for me and my girlfriends father for christmas. They had it on sale from 249.00 to 169.00 which I thought was a faboulus deal. The garmin has a 3.5" color s...

The Garmin Nuvi 200 is a nice and simple easy to use GPS. Well all of the Garmin GPS's work the same but this GPS is more easy to use than any other GPS's. The problem with this GPS is that the sattelite signal takes too long to arrive. Sometimes it doesn't arrive to the GPS at all. When you need to go somewhere in a hurry the signal doesn't arrive at all and that can really be ...

I am a person who gets lost very easily.  I could get lost in a one town road, which I practically did so I decided to purchase myself a GPS. I purchased the Nuvi for my Pt Cruiser.  I was thinking I wanted something small, something portable and something easy to use.  Well Nuvi is all three plus more.  It is so easy to set up and display things and very easy to use. T...
