Default Garmin 396 vs 496


Quite frankly, if you're only looking for a GPS, get yourself a
Lowrance 2000c or the AvMap IV. You'll save yourself a bundle, and end
up with a vastly superior GPS unit.


Lowrance 2000C just smokes - and mine was only $700.00 at Arlington.
My 195 now sits on the right yoke - pretty cool to have 2 - including
terrain avoidance - for less than the price of a 396.
