Pros: Intuitive menus, bright easy to read screen, very detailed maps, small and easy to mount.
Cons: Sometimes questionable routing, short battery life, multiple and possibly confusing software required for advanced features.
The Bottom Line: An easy to use model for the average driver who wants basic navigation from point A to point B, yet offers a few power-user features if you so desire.
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review:

This reviewer recommends this product.

Review:
I received the Garmin nuvi 250W as a gift before a cross country trip so I got to put it through the test right away. It has now accompanied me on four cross country 6000 km journeys and has been useful on every one.
The nuvi 250W is easy to...
