RoadMate 1400:
Very easy to use. Easily mounts to top of dash. Good display and driving directions. Great buy. Don't know why you can't get a topo version.
Why would you pay more?:
This is your basic GPS device that is user friendly, reliable. We're sure there are devices with more features but at our age we're happy just to know how to get there. It doesn't say "recalculating route" if you go wrong or change plans therefore you might not know right away that you missed a turn.
Great little gps for the money:
My husband had trouble hearing while driving when the old gps would talk and more trouble seeing the smaller screen. This is much better for our use and will get more use when going to Oahu soon.
impressive:
My wife and I had never owned a GPS unit before. At our age (late70's),we
look for an easy to use and understand unit..This Magellan has both of
those qualities, and more..
