GPS QUESTION (GARMAN)

[sunrise lipripper]

I am not very familiar with GPS's and the differences between them. Someone wants to sell me a Garman III PLUS for $150. It is about 3-4 years old and I'm not sure if it is worth it. He has the vidio, CD-Rom and manual. It seem's to be in very good condition. He has only used it a few times.

My primary use for this will fishing (ice and open water) and 4-wheeling.

Can anyone give me some feedback on the unit.

For being that old and at that price make sure it has mapping capability and plenty of memory.

I have a III plus, and have been very happy with it. I have uses the Lakemaster software to upload waypoints from the mapping software to my GPS. It works very well.

That said, $150 seems a bit steep for a unit that is about 3-4 years old.

I bought mine for $99 three years ago when Office Depot was closing them out.

Gissert...

Thanks for the info. Do you use the Lakeview software for the lake maps or are you using it just for the waypoint information?

I am going to see if he will come down on his price a little.

Thanks Again... Sunrise...
