RE: gps system
I can tell you from experience to get a Garmin.....i worked at a store this summer that sold all brands of GPS units...and the Garmin brand is far superior. The Garmins are extremely easy to use and have the maps and stuff already installed on them so you dont have to buy anything elso with it, also the resolution is amazing. Depending on how much you want to spend.....the new model which i beleive is called the Garmin Oregon or Colorado is pretty awesome. Hope this helps
