Outer Limits 4x4 Board

A friend of my dads has offered me a brand new Garmin GPS 3 in the box with all the bits and pieces (car brackets etc..) for $200 bucks

Can anyone advise what there thoughts are on this model? is it a good brand? is it a good model? is it easy to use? (ive never used one)

thanks in advance...

Its a good unit, I like the layout of them, either layin down or upright. Nice clear screen and all.

GPS2's are going for $250+ on Ebay, so $200 sounds cheap, grab it! Theres GPS 3's for $350 startin price on Ebay.

thanks, are they pretty easy to use if your a beginner? ive never touched one before.

Dunno if i am looking for the right thing but Garmin GPS III seem to be going for 1000 plus on ebay. Am i looking for the wrong model?
