Default Get a Garmin (and a GadgeTT) >>

Costco has the Garmin 360 at a great price. I have this unit and it is a great fit in the TT. I have it mounted on a Modshack GadgeTT between the center dash vents. It is a good size in that it doesn't block the vents.

The 360 has bluetooth capability. I paid a lot more for mine, so if you are looking for a good basic unit - get one (and a GadgeTT).<ul><li><a href="http://www.costco.com/Browse/Product.aspx?Prodid=11245222&amp;cm_mmc=BCEmail_26 8-_-QUAD-_-1-_-GarminNuvi360">Costco Garmin 360</a></li></ul>

Default They also have the 650 (no bluetooth) but a wider screen for a great deal, $300.

Default How often do you guys use the Garmin? Everytime you drive? Just curious b/c...>>>

I always map out everything at home on the internet before I get in the car (that is if I don't already know how to get there). Was thinking about getting one of these but thought to myself am I really going to use it that much?

Default I use mine all the time when its not needed.

Example:

From MD to PA to visit my parents. I know exactly how to get there. TomTom tells me it take 2hrs. I try and see how much time I can knock off the original estimate.

Last time I drove it I knocked off 30+mins.

Its on a gadgeTT also.

Default I pre-map too, but use this for road trips. It really comes in handy>>>

if you fly somewhere and don't know the city. It really helped in the Orange County/LA area last summer.
