    Gps help!

    Ok guys. I got sent to do some work in northern Louisiana and need some help in choseing a GPS for my truck. I need to visit well locations and am not familiar with the area. I have all the GPS coridinates for the sites. I need to buy a GPS that will allow me to enter the coridinates and then show me what roads to take to get there. I need one that is relative inexpensive being that I am a contractor and will be tieing up my money. Which one do I buy? I need to buy at Academy, Walmat or Best Buy and quick. Help me TBH!

    Just got this one for my daughter. Really like the fact that it includes lifetime map updates. Larger screen is a plus also. Only problem is... now I want one!

          I don't think you can enter coordinates in a Tomtom One. A handheld eTrex yes you can.

            Yeah, you can do that with any Garmin Nuvi.

              Thanks Snakelover. I think I am going that route but that one you got your daughter is a little too rich for my blood. I'll have to get one that isnt as expensive.

                I'm running a Lowrance Iway600c. It has one of the largest screens out there. It also has arial photos of city areas.

                  Might check the 255W and/or the 265W. Should be right around $100. Our company furnished them to some employees who are in company vehicles all day. They're still wide screens, just 4.5" instead of 5". They're no frills and seem pretty dependable.

                    Yes , I agree I have a garmin 265 wt. It depends on your budget. The gamin sumo line is the best but$$$$ if you got it buy it. The 1450 lmt is the best mOst popular one. You need to ask your self 2 things . How much and what features.
