GPS 4.3" Widescreen

[Kurt Horvath]

George,

I just bought the kids and Mom Garmin Nuvi 760's and a 755T from
http://www.tigergps.com New not REFURB!!!! The have a good online
rating for sales and service. $249 delivered for the 760' and $299
for the 755T. They also have the huge 7" 7500 for $400. In stock and
shipped. I did lots of surfing for info and the 760's are rated 5
5tars, and the 755T is the same with life time traffic service.

Sorry I just went to that web site and all the prices have gone up.
Yesterday was Cyber Monday, stuff was on sale. The 760's ars nor
$269.00 with free shipping still a good deal.
