Gonna buy a GPS for the GF for Christmas, cuz she is absolutely horseshit with directions.. SOmething with text to speech is preferred so she can keep her eyes on the road.. I know there are a TON of units out there, but from what Ive seen, there are alot of good ones out there for under $150, that will do everything better than the pos APP on her android phone..

yea she has that to... Its not bad , but not what the actual GPS units are.. and its more of a safety thing.. SO a nice 3"+ screen with text to speech , so she doesnt have to take her eyes off the road, to look at her phone

I use a Garmen everyday at work, and it has the bluetooth feature as well for phone calling, and is a pretty good brand ,and has worked just fine for my needs,Mcmellan units seem to be confusing,.I drive approx 200-300 miles on average daily one I get to work.You can get life time free map uploads now for the newer units.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

You reckon the earth has changed much since then? The newer one is the 255, I believe.

uhh no, but nav is just like computers.... Outdated after 3 months... So if your not getting what Im saying, is that a $150 gps today is better, faster , more accurate, cheaper and more than likel has more options POIs, etc than a $150 GPS from last yr
