We love our Garmin!  We don't travel long-distances often, but when we do we make sure we have it with us.  But this GPS is great for just driving around town which we use it for a lot since both of us visit client sites for work often.

The wide screen and spoken street names are our favorite features.  The directions are clear, concise and give plenty of notice of upcoming turns, etc - all of which allow us to focus on the road and traffic around us rather than squinting at a little screen trying to figure out where we should be going. 

It also has a great feature allowing us to find nearby...
