WVAK47 Posted December 31, 2002 Posted December 31, 2002 I notice in the posts that I have read, most of you are using Gamin. Is there a reason for this. I have a Magellan MAP330 and love it. I have used only one other GPS which was a Garmin but it belonged to someone else and I did get too used to it. Just wondering if there was some reason for everyone choosing Garmin units. Quote
+briansnat Posted December 31, 2002 Posted December 31, 2002 Garmin does seem to be pretty popular in the Northeast, but if you were to poll all Geocachers, I'd bet its pretty evenly split between Garmin and Magellan.

+Harrald Posted December 31, 2002 Posted December 31, 2002 My first GPSr was the basic Garmin eTrex yellow. I purchased it because at the time it only cost $89 delivered. We got used to the interface and the one handed operation. So when it was time to upgrade my wife bought a Vista for me. I don't like change much (it's because of the business I'm in) so staying with the same style is just natural. In closing I bought Garmin because I'm cheap!! ==================================== As always, the above statements are just MHO. ==================================== Quote
+Dekaner Posted December 31, 2002 Posted December 31, 2002 When the need came for a new GPSr, I chose the best price/performance I could afford. Sometimes that meant a Garmin unit, sometimes that means a Magellan unit. Both have their pros and cons. - Dekaner of Team KKF2A Quote
