I use my Garmin III GPS.  I may not know what road I'm on but I'm sure not
going to run into any mountains...

Cheers,

Jeff

We use a handheld unit in our vehicles all the time, since we are
geocachers.  Ours is an Etrex
Legend.  It works great, but we don't have the driver try to read it.
That's the navigator's
job.  We use mapsource topos that cover the whole USA, but not Canada.
