Since I couldn't find the Garmin nuvi 765 up here... and especially
not
on sale, I picked up a new Garmin nuvi 265W.
It is on sale at 'The Source' (formerly Radio Shack) for $139.00 CDN.
Well, I should say my mom bought it...as a birthday present for me.
This unit seems to have pretty solid reviews, and although a basic
unit,
will do me just fine.
The lack of the 'Traffic Notice' feature won't affect me around
here...
I'd have to drive about a thousand miles to use it.
My wife travels more than I do, and ends up renting cars in areas of
the
country typically unfamiliar to her. She's used the Garmin I got for
her
four times now on trips, and says it's a lifesaver.
I see the ID Spoofers have been let out of their cribs by their
mommies...
Donny should know every dirt road and cow path on his teeny weenie
island
by now. No need for GPS there. The GPS should come in handy, though, if
he
ever decides to venture out into the real world on the mainland.
You may be partially right, spoofer.
I will be heading to the big city this fall (Toronto), and although I
know
the major streets, I'm sure the 265W will still come in handy.
Taking the son to rehab?
Why, you lookin' for a referral?
