It’s so easy to get around these days without having to be bothered with maps.
What was once reserved solely for military smart weapons, GPS units can now be had for just a few dollars.
These versatile units have come a long way from just providing latitude and longitude. Now you can get real time traffic updates to avoid any freeway jams.
With so many different GPS choices and features available it can be a bit daunting to find the right unit for you.
The Garmin nüvi 760 4.3-Inch Widescreen Bluetooth Portable GPS Automobile Navigator
What makes this GPS unit different is that the receiver can be carried in your pocket. You can just pop the unit off the window and not have to worry about it getting stolen.
Having a portable unit pays off in another way. I have a tendency to arrive at the supermarket, rush off and forget to take note of where I have parked the car and end up going up and down the aisles until I find it. S o if you’re like me when you are out shopping and forget where your car is parked, the Garmin has a “where’s my car?” feature. Just tap a button and follow the directions. How cool is that! and you will never have to admit to anyone that you lost your car, because in future -you won’t.
What We Like:
- The biggest selling point for the 760 is the multi-route planning. With gas prices being so high anything that can help us save a few bucks at the pump is greatly appreciated. With the multi route planner you can input all your destinations and the unit will calculate the most efficient travel route.
- Real time traffic updates are available with a subscription. The unit automatically tunes in to traffic channels and can suggest alternate routes to avoid wrecks and traffic jams.
The biggest selling feature though is that this unit can be fully integrated with your other mobile devices. You can use the touch screen to input a phone number and then make calls using your Bluetooth headset.
