    X2 You can't go wrong with Garmins. I use them both personally and professionally.

      I have been looking as well. I have settled on getting the Nuvi 760. It has all the features that you will need in the US. Best one for the bucks. Price around $209 on Amazon.com.

        Thanks, RD
        I have had no problem viewing them on my Nuvi205W (when I remember to take it to check cameras). Nice feature to have.

          This is the one I have. It's great!

            Ok, Thanks everyone.

            I decided to go basic but effective. So I got the Garmin 255W.

            It does not have all the bells and whistles but has most of the features that are important. Sam's Club had it for $183 including the tax.

            So I like it. But when you get it, it will take all evening to update the maps and firmware which you get free in the first 60 days. After that you got to pay so might as well do it pretty quickly after buying it.

            Also, this unit has the SD card picture viewer in it. I tested my Game Camera SD cards and they worked pretty darn good. You can zoom in to see racks on the bucks so it will make due pinch to see your pictures. Make sure if you buy a unit check which type they have. Most newer ones had the Micro SD which of course would not have worked for my game cameras.



            Thanks for all the help....Ranchdog

              My wife uses her Garmin Nuvi 205w everyday for work. She loves it.

                I just bought the 1490T, and I love it. I has 3d, which is awesome. It has taken me everywhere when the Tom Tom would mess up. It seems to be the most accurate. I don't like the bluetooth on it, sounds bad. Other than that, I like it.

                  Thanks to this thread, I found out that I can look at trail cam pics on my Garmin.
