Which Garmin GPS to buy..

Postby gpsnerd » Wed Feb 19, 2014 8:26 pm

thinking of getting a newer, hopefully faster GPS device.
need one thats least 4.3" and bigger.

one concern of mine is newer models do not show as much CPOI as the older models like the 255w i am using currently, can someone confirm this point? :prayer:

Marbella and GARMIN got promotion this IT SHOW.

Long been a GARMIN user and the timely updated here, worry that if I get a latest GARMIN model say with voice command, doubt the map updates here can support..

But like Marbella GPS with their straight line that links u to your destination, thus telling u if u are heading in right direction, doubt GARMIN has this option
