Garmin have been around the longest i believe, so probley the most sorted.
They started years ago, before satnavs making fish finders and the such for the fishing industry.
Apparently it keeps taking him to the nearest fish mongers :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :evil:
Dont need a sat nav for that, living in Hastings with its own beach launched fishing fleet. :laugh: :evil:

It has directed me up a byway that you needed a modified 4WD to get up before too - however, for day to day driving I prefer a TomTom to a Garmin, having used the mother in law's Garmin.

With the Garmin you can set it to avoid un -surfaced roads, handy when driving something 8' wide and 11'8" tall. :evil:

I gave it its first real outing the other day when I went to Notts to get some tyres with wheels attached.1066Boy wrote: Hope you like it after i recommended it. :blush:
It was a joy to use.....I got very close but had to ask where #29 was ; the seller told me most satnavs can't find him. :woohoo:
On the way back we were looking at how it was showing us the lane to take...........and missed it.
