Garmin nuvi 2450LM Automobile Portable GPS Navigator

Great pricing from PC Nation.

Garmin is absolutely the top of the line for GPS. Free map updates. The screen is large and easy to read

Still would like a feature that allows you to opt out of toll roads. Suction cup mount which can be unreliable
