I’m back!

Hello everyone, I’m back. Yeah–I should of prolly told you I was going to Florida! :PWe went on an airplane which I am scared of because I watch all those disaster stories on National Geo. like Seconds From Disaster and Air Emergency but I survived. :PI used my Magellan Maestro 4040 GPS all the way down and back and again it did really well. It came in handy since we were navigating in unfamiliar territory.  It pisses me off how everyone is like, “Oh Garmin is great/Garmin FTW/Get the nuvi770 (or whatever)—stupid people are like, this Nuvi is great because it has:*Bluetooth*Text 2 Speech*Voice Reg.*TrafficWhen my frigging Maestro does the EXACT same thing but BETTER for LESS the price. SplitTrueView 3D (or whatever its called) is just amazing how it makes a 3D image of the next maneuver you are going to make.  That sells me right there (I know it’s trademarked but does any other brand have a “copy cat” version of this?” Paired up with the whole AAA tourbook right inside for auto., hotels, restaurants, etc sells me again. So I know I made the right choice. You have to pay like $50 extra for Garmin’s version of that and that is just restaurants. So let the battle begin, why do you like you’re Garmin/Magellan/TomTom (sucks–frigging menu navigation = horrible but the custimazation options are amazing!! :])BTW: I know that when you pay all that for the nuvi 10000 you get a language pack or Travel Kit but so does the Magellan 4050 + Traffic Kit for again LESS the price. Plus who needs a language translator anyway??Here is my summary of the three top brands:Garmin: Good devices, great map screen, horrible interface, beautiful design of products, expensive, etc.Magellan: great devices, good map screen, real easy interface (my Grandpa uses it and navigates with it awesomely) however sometimes the satellite finder thing can be really…well………slow.TomTom: Horrible Interface, Stupid that to get certain features you have to enable BlueTooth on your phone, but great customization options, cluttered map screen.   Some people may also complain that Garmin has MSDN–but that costs money (1), plus it only works in major cities, so when you don’t live in one. it’s worthless.
