What is a good GPS I should look at, or better yet, I am interested in a GPS that I can move from vehicle to vehicle.

I'd go with Garmin.

This thing is really sweet if you are looking for something small: http://www.amazon.com/Garmin-Nuvi-Pocket...73454212&sr=8-1

I'd love to have one of those in dash units with the fold up screen that has GPS but they are kinda pricey. My buddy has a Tomm Tomm and loves it.

My father in law got one late last year.
He lives in Galveston, about a 4 hour drive to Austin. He used his GPS unit to guide him to our house. It took him almost 6 hours. It had him going all kinds of out of the way.
I don't remember which one he has, but before I buy one I'll make sure it's not the same one he has.

A lot of GPS' dont give the best directions. Mapquest doesnt always give the best directions either.

MapQuest stinks. I always use Yahoo!'s maps. Mapquest screws up alot.

I use mapquest or google maps, then look at the map to see what changes I want to make.

My dad has one of those palm things with GPS. I think he's really happy with it and its 400 or less. Plus you can get a OBD scanner for the engine and attach it! laugh
