which Nuvi to buy
May 26, 2007 garmin, gps navigation

If you are on the market for a Garmin Nuvi you may be a little confused. So we put together this table that should help you make a quick decision. For example if you are going to use this in North America only you can eliminate 4 models (300, 310, 600, and 610) right off the bat since those are only offered in Europe. Or if you want maps for both continents you’ll see easily that you only have three options: 270, 370 or 670.
