To Missouri, Using Two GPS Units

 

My Wife and I just returned from the Lake of the Ozarks area. This time, I suppose I was a little excessive, but we used our Street Pilot III and our C330 on the windshield. My wife could better see the C330. The SP3 was handy because I needed to load specific routes into it. The downside is that it is quite slow by today's standards in recalculating routes. The C330 was used to display our speed and to separately find places to eat and to get gas. We were sure glad to have the units, it would have been terrible trying to navigate to the house we were cleaning without it. The roads in that area are crazy. Highways are listed as highway 5, branches off it are 5-35a, b etc. Other highways are TT, MM and the like.
My wife got a little confused at the time which gps to listen to. She'd say, "What is she talking about?" But I had to remind her one was trying to get us to a place to eat and the other thought we were not following it's directions. But most of the time we had the volume down on the C330.
On the way home we travelled in the remants of Ike in the dark, with constant driving rain on Highway 42 out of Osage Beach. The visibility was terrible, the road very crooked. I was sure thankful to have gps assistance.

If you have two Gps units, consider taking them both if either one has some features that the other one doesn't. Maybe you won't want both on the dash, but it could come in handy to switch them off, if one of them broke.
