Lots of really nice features.

Anyone have any feed back on this unit. Garmin Nuvi 750 (https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?cID=134&pID=10625)

I have owned several brands and found Garmin to be the most accurate. The factory GM units are about as reliable as letting Ray Charles drive you there. You will not be dissapointed. They are like a cell phone, dvd player, etc. now that you have one you will never be without it.

Robin was hot this morning however I think Meghan on fox is right there.

I prefer the ol' school way: Get hopelessly lost, while running late, and have a giant argument in the car with your passenger about how to get un-lost.....

I live by my Garmin. I am horrible with streets and directions. My GPS is a life saver for me. Garmin = win.

I only use mine when I want to get a number for somewhere or I want to find the "nearest" whatever. When I go on long trips its awesome. But I never really use it around the city anymore because I know where i'm going. I have a TOM TOM

My parents are getting me one for Christmas and I am super excited. Adam and I always fight in the car if/when we get lost, so it will be so much nicer when we go to new places.

Although I still think he needs to take some map-reading class......

I like Garmin's...but still travel with Maps too (I find them quicker for finding alternate routes when needed).

I have had the 260 for a while and am nothing but pleased with it.

I want one. Last night I got lost in a place I am not familiar with. I was in a very pissy mood until I found the place I needed to be.

Yeah the find a local anything options rocks. From gas to hospitals .... The fact that you can add way points really is a cool asset. I absolutely love this thing.
