Where can one find information on downloading Mapquest info to my Garmin nuvi 250?

My gripe is that to update maps they want £59.99 and online you can buy a whole new unit for that.

I am professional truck driver and the owner of Garmin 250W Europe, I agree with you, Garmin is the best device among the affordable yet powerfull GPS devices I choose for my work.

Not on that particular model. Some other automotive units do have a basic topo but it’s probably not as detailed as you’d like.

You’d be better off buying a secondary trail-specific Garmin handheld like the Oregon or Colorado. That has all the trail stuff goodies you’d want. https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?cID=145

I do have a trail-specific handheld (Garmin Rino 130), and yeah you need it if you go tromping in the woods from time to time. No automotive unit by Garmin has been able to successfully marry street + trail.

I just received a nuvi 250 for Christmas ans was wondering if there was off road/trail maps or topos available to add on to this unit. I do spend a bit of time in the back country, and would like the option of street and trail GPS together. Thanks

Am happy with my Garmin Nuvi, seems to do what it says on the tin, only niggle really is theres only 1 voice on it, although i haven’t updated it yet, i did see u can get an ozzy osbourne voice but it sounded VERY ANNOYING!

What you failed to mention ,is that they spend most of the time ,looking and not finding satellites, and when they do they suffer from poor reception, maybe it my unit , anyway not impressed at all.

What is also impressive about the budget conscious Garmin Nuvi 250 is the accuracy. They have a WAAS enabled (improves accuracy)SiRF Star III chipset which has position accuracy down to 2.0m.
