  10. no tomtom no navigon ?

    this comparison video is shit they used 1 good brand and 3 shit brands

    do a real comparison ffs

    tomtom vs navigon vs garmin so i can choose what to buy

  11. I bought my Garmin C330 in October of 2007 and I have 130,000 miles on it. I love Garmin’s products. Just two things that I would love to see changed: While driving in a tractor trailer, “Truck,” it would have all low clearences marked to avoid. The second: When entering a town/city, it would use the State/US Route designation instead of the city street name. Excellent product, however. I’m sold for life on them.

  12. does it cost extra to use the internet feature with the Dash model? …and I’ve never ever heard of Becker before… actually never heard of Dash either

  13. In my opinion, Garmin is #1. They really hit it off with the etrex series.

    Dad just bought a Nuvi 200 today. It’ll be interesting to see how it does.

  14. I have had my garmin nuvi 255w for a month now and really enjoy it. As a first time GPS owner I find that the Garmin is lacking in information concerning operation of the device. You have to go to the site and download a manual. They don’t even give you one with the product.

  15. get the new garmin 755t way cool lane assist makes it easier to use then older garmins

  16. Where is tom tom?!? Tom Tom is the best!

  17. LOL, no Garmin vs TomTom, Navigon or other major brands?
    Garmin vs shit? Becker? LOL

  18. Garmin is #1 but TOMTOM works well for him

  19. I heard of the dash a couple of months before but Garmin is gaining ground. Thanks to msn direct. The traffic is updated more frequently thru the internet. And now u can add waypoints from windows live in the cloud to the garmin. They still lack total internet access tho.

  20. I trust your opinions. It’s just like H Kardon HT amps, the sound is awesome but they get glitchy and things break down, like channels and stuff. I am getting a Garmin 255w (more fool me) I would’ve preferred the Garmin 260w, it is more time-tested and has good reviews,but it wasn’t available here

  21. IT IS NOT BIG SCREEN.
    ALL devices are small screen.If I need googles
    when I drive,,, GPS device is unusable for all people above 50 years who use eyeglasses.
    WE NEED BBBBIIIIIIIGGGGGGGGGGGG Screen.

  22. garmin is the best of all

  23. 1st of all i used tom tom for almost 2 years now and never have a problem considering im use it every day for my job(messenger carrier) and second personally i like the picture view is like real.garmin is like cartoon view.if you go to best buy..please compare both.you gonna know what im talking about..iknow cause my friend used garmin and he like mine better.anyway is up to you though..

  24. Im about to purchase a garmin…why do u say tomtom is better?

  25. The Harrmon Karmon (sp?) does not work. It’ll start giving horrible glitches and slowdowns after a month of use. I work at an electronic store selling these things. Trust me when I say it sucks. Garmin is MUCH better.
