I use to own a Magellan but after 2 weeks it stopped working. Then I bought a Garmin GPS worked great and user friendly. Since then I have owned a Garmin GPS II, which I gave to my son when I up graded to a Gramin eTrex. Like it so much I then upgraded to a Gramin Summit and now I own a Garmin Vista. I have a friend who had a Lawerence and had nothing but problems like the think locking up. He also bought a Garmin eTrex and loves it. My first garmin GPS was only 8 Sat. The Magellan was 12 sat. all the other Garmin are 12 Sat. All the Garmins are being used almost daily. Park Park Oh where can I park. Look there's a spot....1 hour later OH GOD MY CAR IS GONE

I have a Garmin Vista and use the Mapsource "TOPO" and find it that it works better then I expected it to. Granted it is not a 1/24000 scale but you can see just so much on a gps screen. It seem to be just as good as some of the mapping programs that I have on my laptop. I use Street Atlas an for the past 3 versions it shows the locale post office where "Dennys" is and I call the makers of the program and e-mailed them and still 2 version later it is wrong.... quote: Park Park Oh where can I park.

I have a Garmin Summit and a Vista The compass works AOK But they suck up battey life. I find my self bring along a compass anyhow. quote: Park Park Oh where can I park. Look theres a spot....1 hour later OH GOD MY CAR IS GONE

I have only logged 3 caches BUT I have looked for dozens of them in 4 states. The problem finding a place to park. So I don't go out as much as I like to. quote:Park Park Oh where can I park.
