Looking at getting a GPS unit...questions?

[palivs2hnt]

Hey guys, I'm looking into two different GPS units and was curious if any of you have advise on either of them (pros, cons, etc.)

1) The Magellan Triton 300

2) The Garmin eTrex

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

With the Triton, I like that one can download the National Geographic 7.5 minute maps. I am considering an upgrade from my present GPS.

I yse the garmin etrex, and I've never had a problem with it. I have the cheap $100 camo one that does just the basics. I like it and its very easy to use.

I had an etrex legend before I upgraded to my 60CSx and really liked it. The legend is inexpensive, good reception and worked well.

buy the one for sale in the sale section of the forum by gauchoand. it is a great radio and just by a new batery for it and you have one of the best setups you can get.

I have used the e-trex for years. It is very basic but works well.

Some of the newer units I have been around seem to lock-on

faster but that could just be me.

I prefer the e-trex. Very solid unit.

I think I'm gunna pick up the Magellan 500 from costco. It's on sale for 119.99 I believe retails for like 150.00. I dont know squat about GPS. But I guess I need to buy one so I can learn
