My favirite is when it tells you to go somewhere, then tells you to hit a U-turn. I've had it tell me to go in circles before ..... and for some reason, it always wants to go everywhere via downtown Patterson!

i def say go garmin, other than its small quirks, like when im driving down to philly and i get on the 495 here in LI. The thing is acurate to 19feet, so when i merge onto the highway it thinks im still on the service road, so it tells me to get on at the next entrance ramp, as soon as i change lanes it catches up and realizes that im on the highway. Id also like to mention that im completly dependant on this thing, i never know what road im on when im driving, i just do what the nav lady tells me to do.

Fenix .... if you don't know the roads, you'd better stay in NY. In NJ you have to know 10 different ways to get anywhere if you ever want to get there.
Another thing that I like is that it knows how to get around 1 way streets.

Garmin FTW. Garmin is the leader in GPS aircraft avionics and I've had a lot of hands-on experience with them old and new. I would trust any Garmin to navigate me through a thunderstorm anyday, same with traffic jams and roads.

I have a garmin Nuvi 260w/ and My wife has the Magellan 3140. We both like the Garmin Much better the only cool thing the Magellan does is you make a trip with multiple stops and it will route you the best way or from one to the other instead of punching in each location as you go.

YESS !!!
its nice to see some jersey folk on the forum
i live in easton, pa
work in warren, nj
I AM A LEARNED TRAVELLER... I go allll over NJ, NY, PA, CT, MA and I''m telling you the Garmin nuvi 350 is one hell of a machine
i never get lost, its always dead on, super easy to use... and there is a estimated ETA on there that gives you a very reasonable idea of when you''ll show up
i got mine for around 220 online... its sweet, get it

Something to keep in mind while buying a GPS that most people dont know. For example, if you buy a Garmin the mapping system is the same in the $150 model as the $1000 model. Your just paying for added features as it gets up there in price.

I have the stock Navi in the car, but I bought the Garmin 260W and we both love it! Very easy to use and the ETA is pretty much dead on. I like it when I can shave off a couple minutes here and there while the stock Honda unit stays the same time throughout the trip.
