For me, I am always for the lookout for a product that gives me the best value for my money. I look for a product that gives me what I need without all the unnecessary bell's and whistles. After some research, I finally settled for the Garmin Nuvi 255W. Here is a quick look at what I got.
First of all, the price was right. At the time of writing, it costs around 0 a piece, which is as much as I would spend for a navigation gadget. Despite its price, it does come with a wide array of features. The 255W is so much more than a GPS device. With just a click of a button, you can find the nearest gas station, restaurant, or mall and find the shortest route to get there. Finding the best route tow reach your destination all the time will help you save time, energy and money.

The large screen makes it much easier to view, especially while you are driving. It also has 6 million point of interests and comes with maps of the USA (including Alaska, and Hawaii), Canada and several more. The Garmin Nuvi 255W also incorporates many functions that were once only found in more expensive navigators. It comes with text-to-speech functions, bicycle modes, image viewer, currency converter, calculator mode and much more.
