[QUOTE="Flylooper, post: 552168, member: 904"] +1 with Garmin. There are few, if any, companies of [U]any[/U] kind who treat their customers better. I was stunned when I punctured the screen on my 2610 and called Garmin for a repair. I was out of warranty by 2 months and the C/S rep said they'd overlook it and they repaired my 2610 free of charge. They are friendly, helpful, and incredibly courteous people. That was some time ago and it's nice to read that they still are operating the same way. I've been using my "refurbished" Mod. 2610 for something like 4 years. The only thing I did for it was install a bigger flash memory chip and uploaded every map of North America on to the unit. I never have to hook up the unit ot the computer (I don't even think I know how!!) I've used it in lots of rain (Hey! I'm in Oregon!), snow, freezing temps, +100 degree temps---the whole magilla! As they say, it "takes a licking and keeps on ticking." I've made two moto trips across the country and one up to Alaska without even a hint of a problem. Incredibly well made unit. Don't mean to be such a Garmin shill, but they're really a great company, IMHO. It's a little dated now, what with all the bells and whistles they keep adding to the newer units, but I have no reason to get rid of such a dependable GPS. [/QUOTE]
