I have a Garmin NUVI 260 - All I need.

No Bluetooth or anything, just a simple, decent GPS.

I've got a Nuvi 260 I think. It's nice. Whatever you do make sure you get one that can say the street names. If it just says turn left or turn right at a place where there are multiple options it can be confusing. I know the 260 has that option, I'm not sure which of the older ones do though.

Nuvi - decide if you want widescreen or the smaller verison.

Text to speech is must

Bluetooth - if you have a bluetooth cell phone and no bluetooth built into your car its a nice feature. Works well on the Nuvi's.


Amazon usually has the best prices.

I have the Nuvi 310 and I like it.

My parents individually own the Nuvi 250 and they both like it.

You can spend some more and get the widescreen version (Nuvi 250W) for under $200.

Edit: Fixed a link

I have a Clarion NICE 430, dunno if it's considered "good" or not but I like it.

I use the Magellan 1412, and it's perfectly fine. It's got the widescreen and TTS. I've found that it's rather poor at getting you to the right street number on the numerous small roads in my area, but on the bigger country and state roads, it's on the money every time.
