garmin gps iii plus
somebody is selling me a garmin gps III plus handheld receiver but is selling it without all the accesories?
what will i need to get it to be able to work well?
and i’m going to traveling to orlando florida and i need an unexpensive gps system that will show me the highway stops and where to make turns is this system for that thanks?
This will probably be adequate, though it is quite old technology. Current Garmin models can route (give turn-by-turn directions) using the basemap, so if the GPS III happens to be able to route using the basemap, it will get you close to your destination. It’ll take you to the closest major road or highway, but unless you have detailed maps loaded, like for neighborhood streets, you might not get to your exact destination. You might want to check if they have the map CDs available, as well as the cable that would be needed to transfer the detailed map data to the GPS receiver.
The problem with most new GPS receivers is that the detailed maps cost extra, like $70-130 extra. If you have a laptop, look into finding a copy of Microsoft Streets and Trips that comes with the GPS receiver. Even a version a year or two old might be OK. I’ve seen the 2006 version with the GPS receiver as cheap as $45. The GPS receiver is attached to your laptop, and the laptop will give you on-screen driving directions. I think some versions of Streets and Trips will even give you audio cues for turns.
