Can Anyone Recommend a Good GPS?

Rob:
Whatever you buy, get it a month or more before the trip and try it out on trips you know. It's good to get used to how it directs you and find out some of its foibles -- like how it pronounces "QEW". A week into our trip we'd had enough of how ours pronounced "North" and changed the voice. And the way it gives you the first bit of the exit sign (Highway 10 South) and partway around the ramp tells you to take Highway 10 North.
I'm not sure how far ahead of time it warns you about exits -- less than 2 miles usually -- which may not get you out of the express lanes on the 401.
Another note: we had to make a left turn into our campground on a road with a boulevard in the middle. The GPS didn't know there was a gap and kept telling us to drive another quarter mile and make a U-turn.
They were on sale at Best Buy and Canadian Tyre in the flyers today.

That sounds like good advice -- to buy it at least a month ahead of time to test it out on well-known routes. TIme is ticking away so we will need to get it soon. Rob
