When it comes to GPS and navigation a few things come to most Jeep owners minds- cost and function but what can be most often forgotten in fuel savings. Yes, fuel savings due to better route planning to get to and from where you are going. With the cost of fuel over $3 a GPS is a great advantage to have; more so then just the convenience of accurate directions, to restaurants, rest areas, roads and trails.

Now let's take a look at the features. Common to all systems are the mapping capabilities which shows highways and street signs which are large enough to see while you are driving. There are screen color options; black, white, or color. Point of interests can easily help you find restaurants and Jeep dealers. You can program the GPS to talk to you or keep it silent. You should consider how loud the voice prompts are...If you are in a Jeep Wrangler you will want some volume control!

Next consider mounting options: In dash mounting such as the RB1 Navigation Radio formed dash mount units such as the Mopar Trail Guide, or generic mounting such as a windshield suction cup. Each has an advantage and disadvantage.

When considering a dash mount vs. portable unit there are a number of things to consider: with a dash mount you have the advantage of always having it with you but the disadvantage is having your GPS set-up for just one vehicle. How about a mountable but portable unit? If you choose GPS navigation system that is portable you will be able to easily use it in multiple vehicles and also on the trail, on a bike or boat. Another very nice advantage with a portable GPS is theft prevention; you can take it with you vs. leaving it in your vehicle. Is their a disadvantage to portable? Sure, if it is portable you could leave it behind and not have your GPS available when needed.

A word on security: never leave your home address programmed into you GPS, in the event your GPS unit is stolen you are giving a guided route to your home- not good. program your local police department address instead and label it home!

Save some fuel, take an easy route, don't get lost and consider all your vehicle GPS navigation options before making the purchase.
