No subscription or service fee. When you buy it, you can take it out into the parking lot and have it working in 15 minutes. I did and I am damned computer illiterate.

I suction cup mine up near the rear view mirror. That helps shade it. Depends on the car. The suction cup wont stick to those little black dots they use for shading around the mirror though. Need to move to clean glass.

Another neat feature, if you are 50 miles let say from a town, you can enter that town in as "near ______" Then it will pick up all the food shops, restraunts ,etc in that town also.

You can zoom in and out. Once you get the hang of it, you get it at the right setting to where it shows the names of upcoming cross roads, plus you can see a curve in road and know way in advance how sharp the curve and to which direction.

The newer Garmins may be flatter, mine is like an old fashioned computer monitor, but the flat ones will fit in your pocket, purse or backpack. The battery lasts all day on mine.

finally, when you buy one, try to go with a model or brand that has a fresh "update" I bought my Garmin and within 6 months there was an update available but for $69. I skipped the first update and it still does 95% of what you need. Then did update, but think next time I'll just buy new.

Above all have fun, but this thing may save some frayed nerves and arguments with the spouse over being lost or missing an exit!

Today's Featured Article - Gatherin of the Orange - by Rick Nikolich. In July of 1998 I was talking to fellow Allis Chalmers collector Mike Schilling about the annual "Gathering of The Orange" AC show coming up in August of 1999. He got this wild idea that we should get a convoy of AC tractors and drive them from Charlotte, Michigan 105 miles to LaGrange, Indiana. ... [Read Article]
