A gadget that many people seem to have after market is a satellite navigation system. If your car does not have one already installed because it is an older vehicle or because it is a newer vehicle and you did not get that option, I would highly suggest picking up an after-market sat system.

In the beginning these systems did not work like they do today. They would show you on a map but the map would not have very much detail and it would not always be accurate. Today, the maps in these systems are very intricate and will give a precise location of where you are and directions to where you want to go. The best part is that these systems are updateable.

To update these systems to the newest roads available, all you need to do is visit the manufacturer’s website and download a new map system. You then plug in your device and install it. Simple as that!

To read some of the best sat nav reviews that I have read, you can visit the link. I personally have tried a few brands on the market today and found that Garmin offers the best package deal for your money.

The exact model that I have is the Garmin Nuvi 3710. It comes in a very slim aluminum finish and is extremely lightweight. It is so small that I like to keep it in the glove compartment of my car when it is not in use. It also has an HD screen that is 4.3 inches large.

If you are thinking about picking one of these up, you may be interested to hear that it runs a software that picks up on your driving habits to give more precise information about destinations and when you will arrive. It also comes with a nice holder so that you can attach it to your windshield by use of a suction cup when you are using it.

Go check out the reviews on these devices and get one today. You will never get lost again and being lost or not on time will become a thing of the past!
