What kind of portable gps should i get?

Question

i want to get a portable gps for under $300. i want to know what people think is the best one to get. i hear alot about the garmin nuvi's but there are so many of them.

Answer 1

There are tons of PND available and they are all pretty good, but to play it safe, stick with the top 3 GPS manufacturers and you should be o.k.

I would recommend for you to consider the Garmin Nuvi 260W 4.3" display, NA coverage with Text to speech ability. No Bluetooth but this unit is a deal at $239,99

Than consider the TomTom ONE XL 330-S which also offers a 4.3" display with Text to speech feature only for $299.99 a great deal.

Last but probably one of the most full feature GPS you can buy at the $299 price will be the Magellan Maestro 4250, it comes with voice command, Text to Speech, Bluetooth hands free, Full North America map, AAA tour book and a 4.3" display. This is the best deal going currently if you wish to have it all for under $300

Not sure which one will meet your requirements? rent one from GPS4Rent at http://www.gps4rent.com/ and test drive as many of these as you wish.

Hope this helps
