my girlfriend is always gettin lost. so i figured id buy her a little portable nav system to put in her car. like one of those 4-5' magellen's or garmin's. which is the best? ive always looked at in dash ones so i have no idea how these rate.... thanks

 

Garmin's are supposed to be the best, since her car has bluetooth already get the highest end garmin without bluetooth.
I need a navi also, but I'm getting a stand alone hard drive one that mounts in the trunk that's connected to a rearview mirror monitor.

 

she doesnt have bluetooth... i didnt even mention what kind of car she has. she has an 06 accord. anybody have experiences with the garmins??

 

I've used Garmin Mobile on my cell phone for a couple years. It's got voice commands and everything, only downside is that the display is only as big as your cell phone's screen. It costs $9.95 a month or free if you know where to look. Other then that any Garmin is recommended.

 

oh, i saw 05 RL and didnt realizes that was ur car not hers

 

These may help...

Which is the easiest to use, would you say? My mom is kicking herself for not getting navigation from the factory, and really does need a portable-she's just electronic retarded

 

I can get you one of these for $399.00 I've seen really good reviews.

HP Navigator

 

thats retarded! on the rearview mirror? so small and so easy to get distracted. I thought tom tom was one of the best?

 

I bought the Garmin c330 Street Pilot and absolutely love it. I travel to a lot of different cities and I take it with me to use in the rental car.

It is by no means a fancy model, but it has a stone simple interface, was cheap, and works like a champ.

 

Garmin Nuvi 660...best nav I ever owned, period

 

i have the garmin 2820 and its great.

 

stick with garmins. i have one and its very very easy to use. my gf, who once had an IS300 for 2 yrs and didnt even know it was equipped with navi while she had it (pop up navi), figured it out without reading the manual

 

Garmin FTW!

I rented one for my rental car, I loved this thing outside of my TL's navi.

 

Garmin nuvi's are great units and even the tomtoms.

 

Did nobody get that but me?

 

Unless its locked people won't care
