Author's Review
I wanted a GPS for navigatiing. I am not a techno-weenie so I didn't want all the MP3, blue tooth, and other stuff I'll never use.

This unit is very intuitive. I didn't even read the manual and just started using it like a pro. The display is bright and I can read it with my sun glasses on. My Garmin GPS-IV needed reading glasses to see. It will stay on my quad now.

The only CON I found is that sometimes the road name is shown as a county road instead of the actual name. The county seldom puts the county road numbers on signs around here, just the names. The green bar on top DOES show the name IF your driving on it, but not if it is a cross road. My delorme map program tends to do this too.
