Swamphunter Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 Just ordered my directionally challenged wife a Garmin nuvi 760 for Christmas as an additional gift. Its not her only gift, but the big one. She has never really said she wanted it, but has made comments that they are pretty cool. I also got her some jewelry and crap, so its not the only thing she will open. Am I dead meat?? If she doesn't like it, it will be in the classifieds here on Dec 26th.

cinch314 Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 I dont think you'll be in the doghouse since she had previously commented on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 Considered getting one for my wife Ken, the gps navigation system was about the only option her new durango did not have. Let us know how it goes over.:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tominator Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 Got my wife one a couple years ago. She loves it. I use it too. It's nice for finding city addresses in particular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swamphunter Posted December 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 (edited) Considered getting one for my wife Ken, the gps navigation system was about the only option her new durango did not have. Let us know how it goes over.:D Check the classifieds her on Dec 26th.. maybe you'll get a deal on one! Seriously though, I found it at Walmart.com for $246.00. Everywhere else seemed much higher, although Amazon.com came close, Walmart was cheaper. Again, it is the Garmin nuvi 760 version Edited December 11, 2008 by Swamphunter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muff Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 they are a great thing.....if I was on the road more I would have one for sure....we took one down to Philly in the spring....it was great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leo Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 Got one for my wife for her birthday. I was in the doghouse until she used it. Then she LOVED IT! She's in Real estate so no more calling the office or home to get mapquest directions. Word of advice. Install the software that comes with it. Hook it up to the computer and update it before you use it. Life will be better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdvantageTimberLou Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 My wife has one Ken and loves it. Pretty neat thing to have and very accurate. Problem is she always finds her way back home now.....dang!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dakota Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 Sometimes women don't know what they need and must be told. Having dated several girls, I can honestly say you just stuck one foot in your mouth and shot yourself in the other! :D:D Jk...still...consider your choice of words there before Andrea, Ruth or any of the other ladies here get on your case! :D:D;) Dakota Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swamphunter Posted December 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 You're fine Ken. Sometimes women don't know what they need and must be told. I agree with you Steven 100%. Sometimes she thinks she knows what is best for her but I have to correct her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
layin on the smackdown Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 My girlfriend asked for one this year too...i think it is so funny how women in general have so many problems with directions....its either that or us guys just have a problem with saying "i'm lost and don't know how to get there":D I opted out of buying one for her for one reason....It really really stinks getting out of bed and freezing my goodies off when i have to go outside and start her car for her when the temp is hovering around zero...so i am goin with an automatic start key....its a win win gift:D:D:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazylegz70 Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 Lets just say, that my gf got one from her parents and LOVES it. The only problem is that when they update the Interstates she calls me crying that she is lost..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun_300 Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 I'm sure she'll love it Ken! I wouldn't be worried. A few of our customers that come in at work have them, they work pretty good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 I'll start the bidding off at $150! :D:D Seriously Ken, I think she'll like it after she figures out how to use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazylegz70 Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 Thats the good part about the portable gps....nothin to figure out. Plug them in an dplug in address.....that easy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If she doesn't like it, it will be in the classifieds here on Dec 26th. Yep...Start learning how to fold those sheets:p The GPS Navi is good to Go...but your other decisions have me more than slightly concerned...Did you bump your head...are you OK??? You should have just got her more Jewelry and not gone for the package deal..with the Crap included:D I would'nt try to sell that Crap in the classifieds either if she does'nt like it....trust me if you even attempt to give her that you wont be around to post in the Classifieds:eek: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
