Rating: - Very good GPS at its days
It was a very good GPS with sense reception. It is convenient to use 2 AA batteries. You can buy it anywhere and never will lose power. The only down side is the memory is too small that can save map to cover only certain area. Of course compare with today's GPS, this one is very outdated.
Rating: - Too old, too slow
I'll be brief... why would ANYBODY buy this antiquated, discontinued piece of crap when, for the same money or less, you can purchase an up-to-date, fast machine with much more memory. Why do you think Garmin discontinued it? And, speaking of Garmin, if you ever need factory technical support, be prepared to wait up to an hour or longer on hold... and they will tell you that in their message!!!
Rating: - great value for the money
The Garmin V has all the bells and whistles of the higher end 276C and 376C at a fraction of the cost. The processor is not quite as quick as the higher end units but works great for navigating to an address or locaton. For under $200 I love this unit.
Rating: - Great first GPS
This GPS, in my evaluation, had the best balance between functionality, portability and size. I used to drive more than 2000 miles, in 3 different states on my vacations and it was terrific. Even it is not in color (comparing with other models) this is very convenient to use while you're driving or if you are walking. The only issue (problem) was the connection with my laptop, this GPS comes with a serial port connection (there is no USB connection), I had to buy an adaptor (serial to USB connector) to be able to load the maps (add 30$ to your budget). This is one of the best devices in this category, ... Read More
Rating: - Garmin GPS V, nice rig, but....
Rig was purchased primarily for geocaching, but secondarily for traveling in USA and Europe. Loads great from my desktop, but the package really needs a USB cable termination so you can use it on a laptop. This would allow on the road downloads, since unit only has 19 MB of memory. Incredible accuracy, which is a must in geocaching. Also, if you miss a turn, (difficult, but I did it), the V immediately recomputed a U turn, using side streets. If this had come with a USB cable, I would have rated it a 5.
