Any of the Garmin Nuvi's are fantastic. I've had a 350 for a couple years now and love it. Costco is selling the 360 for $249 (for another week or so) which is the 350 with Bluetooth. For me it was $279 after tax and shipping. I decided to upgrade to the 360.

I'm mounting my new 750 with the Kuda dash mount... they make that one and a downtube version for the R50-53 and an R56 version as well.
Here's the link to the R50-53 version. http://www.kudausa.com/kuda_mount_an...06-34-314.html#
It's expensive (about $100 out the door), but is one of the best looking mounts IMHO... I hate fussy clamps and flex pipes stretching everywhere.

update on deal
Regarding the $513.95 with 2 day shipping deal from thenerds.net.... well it came today and it works great! The price was much lower than found at other websites. You can find it for $479 on another site if you do a google search... however if you do a BBB.org search on the company... they have a really bad rep with the BBB. Thenerds.net came through!

Actually, if you don't have one of the newer Nuvis like the 700 series, sometimes the c340 is better (route management, for example). I had a 650 that I only prefered for travelling due to it's size... the 750 is waaaay nicer (route support added back in, automatic arranging of destinations for most efficient travel, etc).

:dunno: the 200W works great for me, though I generally hate most NAV's. While in Philly at Helix, Jan from RMW and I took Eric's M3 to round up lunch, looking for the Wawa we'd been to the day before (with someone else driving). The NAV ended up taking us all over the place, into some bad neighborhoods, and we finally ended up at a Wawa, but not the one we wanted. Had I been smart and actually listened to Eric's directions, we'd have been there in back in 15 minutes.
Same thing two years ago at MOTD....we drove west towards Knoxville and wanted to cut north through Gatlinburg back to I-40E (we were staying in Asheville). We ended up getting routed through Knoxville into Fri night rush hour traffic, only to fight it all the way out to Gatlinburg. Meh. I could have done much better with 10 seconds of looking at a map.

I just bought the 200W from Costco. Although I prefer one which has the ability to use routes (like all of my previous GPS systems), the price could not be beat and I simply don't want a bunch of non-navigational crap lke MP3 players, bluetooth, etc to double or triple the cost.
The 200W has the same wide screen and sensitive receiver as the more expensive units.
When I specifically need to follow a route I pre-planned on the computer, I will just drive with my routing version alongside my pretty new Nuvi. .

Usually I pre-plan drives very carefully on paper maps and turn-by-turn instructions. I borrowed my brother-in-law's Nuvi 360 on the last club run that I was leading and LOVED having an exact fix on where I was all the time to help with using the maps.
I can't wait to pick up the Nuvi 750 with route planning (10 routes to be held in storage) today at UPS!
I got the R53 Kuda dash mount. It is SPECTACULAR!!! Matches the dash nicely and really snaps into place firmly. Much better than the windshield mount!

Anyone used this mount that has the Chrono pack? I think there's enough room, but it would be nice to be sure.

But what if you want to move it to another car, you ask? You install one of these on the remaining bit of the cord that attaches to the cigarette lighter plug...

Nice routing of the cord. I'm thinking of doing something very similar, but I don't plan on leaving the nav installed all of the time... just for road trips and club drives. I'm going to cut the cord and attach a 12v power male adaptor plug to it. I'll mount a 'panel mount' female outlet on the dash, just above and to the left of the spedo, so it will be easy to plug in but won't have a cord dangling the other 98% of the time that the Nav isn't installed.

Another nice install... but where does the cord go? Right now I see it head down the crevice between the air vent and the speedo, going toward the start button. I'm trying to avoid this cord hanging loose if I can. If you drill a hole in the dash, wouldn't the plug be sticking out from it if you remove the mount and GPS unit?
