I have a 296, and I used it a couple times on the dashboard of my car.
I thought the map base had a very poor grasp of secondary roads (on my
way to the airport, I was driving cross-country most of the time as
far as the Garmin was concerned). And it had some odd names. NH Route
108, for example, is identified as New Hampshire College Turnpike. I
have lived here for more than fifty years and never heard it referred
to as that. (And New Hampshire College became the University of New
Hampshire in 1928.)
