Garmin 396, A Bargain

[Mondo]

I have been running a Garmin 665 for a while and recently purchased a 396. Why, because I’m a GPS, tent, chair whore. It is an absolute bargain at currently under $300. I know the screen does not match the XL in size, but it’s readability in sunlight is way better than the 665. What I love the most is this - I just put in the address for Knutes. When I hit GO, it told me there were tolls and did I want it to calculate a route without tolls. I could not find the HELL YES button, so I clicked on YES. Easy, peasey. There is way too much available for this feeble mind to use, but I am pleased. I think I’ll sell the 665, currently on my Versys, and install another cradle on it and switch the unit as I have done with the 665. Just my 2 cents.

I've been eyeing one as well, though up here the cheapest I could find was $350 at Costco.
