My first GPS. Good to start with topographic map mode, along with turn by turn navigation, and also a marine mode. Eventhough now most GPS units do all that. Seems to be accurate but when about 30 ft. from a cache it tells me I am and near my destination and then clears the waypoint. Leaving me to guess the next 30 ft or so.
Another problem I have is the maps are not updated. Turn by turn routing is weird. I can be on a road heading to a destination and plug that in and the GPS takes me a totally different route, eventhough I know I'm going the fastest route. But the majority of the time it is correct. Not worth the money. By a separate GPS vehicle nav and a seperate one for caching. Veh. nav. is getting very cheap now anyway.
