How to compare Garmins (discontinued and different product lines)

[+marife]

I am looking to buy a new GPS with geocaching features. I wanted to compare our current GPS Garmin Nuvi 750 (discontinued product) with Garmin Nuvi 500 (current Nuvi product line) with Garmin Oregon 400t (current Oregon product line). The Garmin web page does allow me to do this directly. I can do a little URL (address) tampering to get the online comparison I am looking for.

 

1) Get the product IDs for each product you want to compare. For example product Nuvi 750 is 37419, Nuvi 500 is 13424 Oregon 400t is 14904.

2) Do a compare between two products in the same line like Nuvi 500 and Nuvi 550 (https://buy.garmin.com/shop/compare.do?cID=133&compareProduct=13424&compareProduct=27442)

3) In the URL (address) change the product IDs listed to the ones you want and add as many "&compareProduct=" needed like: https://buy.garmin.com/shop/compare.do?cID=...reProduct=14904

 

Now you can compare across product lines as well as discontinued products with current products. Be aware that the product IDs can change at any time.

 

Disclaimer: I do not work for Garmin. This process or the product IDs may change at any time based on Garmin changing its web page and how it functions.
