The Pinto Bean Clan Posted July 7, 2002 Share Posted July 7, 2002 I have a chance to purchase a Magellan GPS 315 or a etrex basic (Yellow). I know that the magellan retails for about $40 to $50 dollars more, but not taking that into account, which is better? Quote Link to comment
The Shadows Know Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 I looked at those units but decided that if I was willing to go from $100 for the etrex to $140 for the Magellan, I might as well throw in another $100 and get a full featured GPS. i went with the Magellan SporTrak Pro for $255. You could check here to see if there is a comparison between the units you mentioned: http://joe.mehaffey.com/ Quote Link to comment
marcus4e Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 I bought the Mag GPS 315 when I made the comparison. I have been very happy with it. I consider it more Engineering (numbers) oriented then the Garmin which was appealing to me. At the time I did not have the choice of the Meridians or the SportTrac> If I did I would have spent the extra $100-150 for the Meridian Gold. Quote Link to comment
