I was wondering which GPS systems you guys like. I had a TomTom in the past, and for the most part I liked it, except it couldn't find McDonalds, Walmarts, etc...
Is Navigon any good? They're pretty cheap on tigerdirect.com

Thanks in advance.

I just spent a long time researching. It depends on what features you want and what you are willing to spend.

For my money I found that the Magellan Maestro 4350 is a great choice.

Large Screen: 4.3" Screen
POI: 6 million points of interest (POIs)
Nice Features: 3d Landmarks, Bluetooth Cell Linking

Points of Interest determine how many different locations show up, ie McDonalds, Walmarts so I would worry about that.

Make sure you do the research yourself. Find different units your interested in and look up reviews.
