I'd like to get a GPS system for my car. I don't need a real expensive ($100 - $120) or extensive one.
Any recommendations?

Walmart had the Garmin on sale, they're pretty good.

Mapquest.
Just kidding, Chief. I have tried TomTom and Garmin. I find that the Garmin units' alpha input, like when you have to enter a street name, is substandard because the letters are too small and close together. I end up fat-fingering two letters together.
I liked the TomTom and, if you can do it, get the text-to-speech model.

I have a garmin c340, yes it is an older model and it doesnt drive the car for you. I paid 400 bucks for it 3 years ago, I just got one for my wife from amazon for 120 bucks, not a bad price for a good easy to use unit.
