Garmin c550 Streetpilot

[Condor]

Anyone runing one of these instead of the Zumo? There's one coming up in an auction tomorrow. I know the screen is smaller, but it still has the screen that can be seen in direct sunlight. It also has Blue Tooth. It doesn't have the enterface cables, but they are still available thru Amazon.

i have two of these units and they are awesome. my first one i bought in 2006, and still running strong.

 

i have another freind who runs one also and his is working fine

 

i picked one up for my brother in law a couple of years ago and his still works perfect.

 

i picked another c550 up for my buddy Gord, cause someone broke into his truck and stole his other one.

 

hope this helps

 

cheers, Scott

 

p,s, make a raincover for it.

I noticed that they have a feature called 'theft lock' that sounds like it's more trouble then it's worth. I hope the unit in the auction doesn't have it set. I would have called Garmin Tech to see if it's unlockable, but they were closed until monday. So it'll be a gamble. Thanks for the feedback..
