Magellan RoadMate 1700-MU 7" GPS Unit Customer Ratings & Reviews - Top & Best Rated...
I like the fact that is a 7 Inch screen..really good price for a 7inch screen...The screen is just Over-sized and actually is a sorespot on the dash and is detrimental to having a good open view of your windshield...This really helps during night-time driving on state & US highways!! Definitely beats paying a car dealer thousands of dollars for a navigation system! The Wal*Mart home delivery was right on time - too bad you can't purchase in-store...
