What is the best car gps navigation system with traffic capabilities under $350?

I got a tom tom but I can't use the traffic part since my phone isn't supported??? whatever. But I'm trying to find a good one thats 4" or larger with good poi's, affordable traffic service, and easy to read screen. any help?? thanks :o)


How about Garmin StreetPilot c550? It is very easy to use right out of the Box. You can spend a fortune on these things and get all these options that you will never use. The screens are easy to navigate and the voice is not so loud to become annoyingwhen giving dircection. And it is on sale now, a decent deal for it is only $350 instead of $500.

How does the car's GPS know when there's "Traffic ahead"?

I rent from Avis and get a Garmin "WhereTo" GPS to help me find my way around an unfamiliar city. Sometimes the Garmin device's voice says, "Traffic ahead." And sure enough, in a couple of miles, there's congestion. Wondering...does the satellite have access to traffic reports? Or compare multiple other Garmins to detect mass slowdowns? Or what? Thanks!


TrafficMaster Monitor [2] and TrafficMaster Freeway (an audio device which talks to warn you of delays on the road ahead) get their data from the roadside units on the road you are on.

What is the best GPS for car use in the US?

I'm planning to do a road trip across the US and plan to buy a top-of-the-line GPS unit. I would like something with touch screen, speech capabilities, traffic information, MP3 and bluetooth capability, etc. I will primarily use this for my car but I do have a motorcycle too. But I'd rather have a better car GPS than one that is car+motorcycle friendly if I had to choose between the two. Two models I am looking at are the Garmin StreetPilot 2820 and the Garmin Zumo 550. I'm leaning toward the Zumo 550 as it seems to be better than the StreetPilot 2820 in almost every way. Can anyone out there shed some light on why I would opt for the StreetPilot 2820 instead of the Zumo 550 or why I should go with a different brand/model? I'm a first-time car GPS buyer and have seen neither Garmin product in person. (All of the stores around here carry only the lower end models.) Thanks!
