Guest guest Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 I'm looking for a GPS unit and the one you mentioned sounds good. Can you give me more info and where to get it. Thanks, Sue Roxanne, I know exactly what you mean. You should get one of the better cheap GPS units. That has helped us tremendously. The inexpensive Mios are good.. around $200 They are life savers.. You will find it a tremendous help in that situation... You still have to be very careful. But it will tell you where you are at all times.. ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 Its a " Mio " and we got it very cheap, on sale for under $200 It has maps of the entire US which isn't that unusual now.. (they all have it) We don't travel much, but when we do we need to know where we are... don't we all.. so it has been a godsend. We wished we had gotten one sooner..

Guest guest Posted October 20, 2007 Report Share Posted October 20, 2007 Do you install it in your car, or do you carry it with you like in a suitcase? --- In , LiveSimply <quackadillian@...> wrote: > > Its a " Mio " and we got it very cheap, on sale for under $200 > It has maps of the entire US which isn't that unusual now..

Guest guest Posted October 20, 2007 Report Share Posted October 20, 2007 They are all very small, about the size of a pack of cards. They typically mount on your dash using a suction cup.Then they can be plugged into your cigarette lighter. They take a few minutes after they are turned on to acquire your location, but then they lock on to the satellites and they can show where you are to within a few feet. You enter in the address you are going to and it will tell you how to get there from wherever you are. If you get one, use a GPS as a reference and NOT blindly follow instructions because its a machine and when they give you wrong instructions, they are very wrong. Sometimes ridiculously so. But that is infrequent.. and you can live with it. Its still a great thing to have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
