Need a GPS reccommendation


Recommended Posts

You'll need 24K Topo maps for turn by turn on a Garmin (unless you download another routing system like City Navigator). The Montana needs a speaker mount for spoken (words) turn by turn, otherwise it beeps like the older units. The Monterra has a built in speaker but is quirky to use (still and IMO). Not sure what the newer Oregon does with turn by turn. New Montana coming out (or out now) has GLONASS added and should be quite similar in use to the Montana. Most familiar with Garmin, but I'm sure there are some other units. You can always use your phone for turn by turn directions since it will most likely be used in the car and plugged in charging while in use.

Well this shows how long its been since I have bought a GPS. Let me try to narrow things a little. I want a GPS for bicycling and Geocaching. Beeping so I know that a turn is coming up will be fine. Does that help narrow the field any? I am not looking for cycling specific GPS.
