    I am in the market for a new GPS. Who is satisfied with theirs, and what brand is it.
    The TND80 I have now is garbage. It keeps crashing.

    The newest Garmin seem good from what I have seen. I'm using Copilot app because company pays for it. None of them seem to be perfect or that always seem to let drivers down at some point. It looks good but it's no cheap the Garmin 1000. I think they make smaller version of same unit.

    I'm guessing the otr 800 is the smaller version? Steep price tag

    The OTR700 is the smallest one. It’s usually $399.

    Once through the gauntlet of crappy batteries /hardware to get a good one (3 units) ive been satisfied with my rm 740.

    Brother is running my old 720, its still functional, but only barely now, has almost 500k on it though
