GPS Quest
I am looking for a GPS. I will be using it for hunting and possibly for my sales territory. Does anyon have any suggestions on GPS units, Garmin? Magellan? Is it difficult to get a waypoint if there is tree cover??? I am looking to spend somewhere between 250 and 350 or 400 if the F and B are worth it. Here are the options I am looking at. Any advice?????

RE: GPS Quest
I used a Garmin when I worked for the USDA. It was a nice unit, but trees did interfere a little with the signal.

I use a Garmin GPS III+. It and several other Garmin models let you download and display Topo's or Street Maps. Having the topo's loded into your GPS is great, especially when hunting new / unfamiliar territory. I would imagine that the street maps would come in handy for your sales territory.
