and you still still need to follow the instructions in my first post on how to make the new car icon, in the UPDATE section at the bottom.

[Sir Nuke]

I was looking back at the first page, and remembered, there are a lot of people that wouldn't know how to make the car icon, so for those of you that havn't read the whole thread....if you happen to have Photoshop or Photoshop Elements, here are some step-by-step instructions on making your own Car Icon.

Do you guys actually like your TOM TOM? I have one, and I don't like it. I much prefer Garmin.

Makes you pay for map upgrades, whereas Garmin gives you a free one each year.

I might like it better if I got a more expensive model. But I paid the same price $129 for the tom tom and the garmin...and just prefer the garmin. Unfortunately, the Garmin isn't mine.

I use OnStar for my directions, but I just like to see the roads and what not as you drive...alone with the ETA.

well I got one off of ebay, it was NIB, and is the XL340S and it cost less than you did....you just gotta shop around, thats all. I got another of the same model off of WOOT and it was only $95.
