I've had the Garmin GPSMAP60C for several years. I've been very happy with it once I had a mount build for it. I never could get use to having a GPS in my pack. It's extreemely useful mounted on the bike where I can see it while riding.

That's not a bad price. I paid Garmin $130.00 to fix mine after it decided to take a trip down the trail (hense the metal cage on the KX for it). The cool thing about the color models...you can make each track stored on the GPS a different color. It's extreemely usefull when your out on an unfamiliar trial that is in the same area as familiar trail.

how about this one:

It looks big and with touch screen, perhaps easier to use?

Shouldn't you purchase a ruggedized unit? That thing has voice prompts on it... not very useful...

O.K. got my work to buy me this one:
Garmin GPSMap 60CSx
they just don't know they bought for me yet. Sure like my VISA corporate procurement card. But I use mine a lot and my old one is hard to see any more.
On sale at Amazon.com for $250 after rebates. Also got the handle bar mount made for it.
