Garmin Nuvi 780 Car GPS Receiver

$402.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
it is great because it auto connects each time i get in my car ...
from www.amazon.com
still haven't figured out how to play it through my car radio, even though that should be simple.
from www.amazon.com
i haven't bothered with the bluetooth as i don't play the n vi through my car stereo, which means it wouldn't auto-mute when a call comes in anyway (and i have a solid bluetooth earbud i prefer).
from www.amazon.com
when comparing it to a cd in my car, actually the best sounding cd that i have, the garmin comes real, real close.
from www.amazon.com

$233.00 Est. at Amazon

finding satelite: this is likely to vary depending on where you are, but i leave my car parked under trees, and fire up the garmin when i get into the car to give it time to find satellite.
from www.amazon.com
i knew that it did not come with a carrying case but since it never leaves my car that was no big deal.
from www.amazon.com
the more i used it, the more i wanted one for my car.
from www.amazon.com
i restarted my car and turned the nuvi on again; i have the security feature on, so it asked for my pin.
from www.amazon.com
it sits unopened as the window mount that comes with the unit works great on my car and the numerous rentals i end up in.
