Review Garmen Nuvi 360
I tend to travel quite a bit, in last 6 months I've been to Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Austin a couple of times, Jay Florida, Biloxi and all over Texas. Sometimes I fly but even then there is usually driving involved to get to the final destination. There have been a couple of incidents that convinced me I should get a new fangled GPS navigation system. The last straw was circling around in Austin trying to get to my Hotel at midnight.
I decided on the Garmen Nüvi 360 It has a larger screen at 2.8"W x 2.1"H; 3.5" diagonal and it has Bluetooth. This would allow me to retire the Bluetooth earpiece that I've been using.
The screen is bright and easy to see in the brightest daylight. I had intended to mount it on a center platform on my dash. But mounting the suction cup holder proved to be impractical. Fortunately it mounts quite well on both my Dodge Nitro and Equality's Accord. Ive noticed that people tend to mount these things in the middle of the windshield. I mount it on both cars low and on drivers side so that it in effect becomes part of my dashboard instrumentation. The mount for the Nuvi is somewhat ingenious. Navigator pops out pretty easily to remove the temptation for potential thieves. The power from the Cigarette lighter adapter is routed through mount although it could be charged directly into the
