I have had three other Garmin models, I kept upgrading till I got to this one. This one has all the features I need to hook it up to my laptop and have real time marine charts or road maps displayed while cruising around in the boat or the car.
This is the LOWEST price around. $214 US, check pricegrabber and amazon. |

I have used my Garmin eTrex Vista for over 200 miles of geocaching now. I really like everything about this product. If you bike a lot, get the Garmin handlebar adapter--turns your eTrex into the world's greatest bike computer! For street navigation, I strongly suggest that you hook this unit up with a laptop but make sure that GPS is set to NMEA and the software GPS setting is also correct. Conclusion, don't street navigate with this unit alone and don't buy a GPS under $90 because you will not be happy with the reception. |
