I just purchased a Garmin NUVI 265 WT (widescreen and receives free traffic data for life in larger cities). Paid $220 with tax and shipping on Amazon. We just took a family roadtrip from South Texas to Wisconsin (total trip log including miles "driven around" from my garage and back to my garage was 3,974 miles in 11 days). We never once were given incorrect directions including rural addresses as well as downtown businesses. The beauty of this particular model is that is has suggested spelling so as soon as you get close to a name (street, city, business etc) it suggests options for you. And in a case where there is a Dr. A St. And a Blvd. It lets touch the screen for the one you want. ALSO if there is a N. And a S. (or E. And W.) it will ask which you want. I could say a lot about it but... Let me just say this is one amazing unit. I will say - we did opt for the $40 dashboard mount rather than going with the windshield mount on our new car. I didn't want the ring left behind on a windshield to be an invitation for thieves to search my car for a gps. (PS caught that beanbag mount at Best Buy on special for only $14.99 instead of $40 so I couldn't pass it up. But I would have bought it either way).
