Go on ebay. They are on there all the time for around $50.

Best I can find on eBay is a referb for about $67.00 and (approx) $10.00 for shipping. I am still looking locally too.

Just went on ebay again. There are some within one day of auction ending that are less than you said. They have gone up in price. I bought mine about a year ago and used they were going for $45-60. The foretrex and forerunner are the best. They are the really small ones.

I've got my eye on a couple. It's the "used" and ebay that I have a problem with. You never know what your going to get. Yes, the forerunner and foretrex are a nice and compact package.

Thanks for the offer Nate,

I am trying to stick with the forerunner or foretrex because of the size.

Thanks
Mike

So you went for USED after all, eh? It's probably fine. Put it to good use. Sometimes it's a rude awakening when you find out your boat really isn't as fast as you think it is. Haaa. :just-kidding:

I found mine on FleeBay... Not my first choice, but I didn't have many other options.

I hear ya... I am not serching for ultimate top speed. I perfer heat racing. I will use it as a baseline. Find a setup/prop that drives well and has enough speed to race. Then I will start to make setup/prop changes and see how it affects performace and speed. It tough to see if your going faster when your by yourself.

haha. agreed. That is the main use my gps gets...to check setups. Fastest with lowest acceptable temps. A must to choosing the right prop in some cases.

You'll love your little GPS!

Have fun!
