I just picked up a new one from Costco.com for 299. plus tax and shipping. I don't know how long this deal will last. I received it 5 days after my order.
Never had used one before. I bought it for trips, but also use it for local driving. It pointed out a few roads I was never aware of.
The larger screen is easy to read. I like that it shows a dimensional perspective of what is ahead, in addition to my actual position. Very informative with POI.....gas stations, restaurants, and lodging.
My wife likes the way it communicates the next turn by speaking the name of the road. She feels more secure, like having a companion in the car.
Easy to use and very accurate positioning!
I don't use the added features, but purchased this one because Garmin had better recommendations than others I was considering from other manufacturers. And, of course, the price was good.
