| Im thinkin bout gettin gps Dont think I can stretch to Garmin Oregon stuff with the fancy maps etc  . Truck has 220v electric in it, so what laptop gps is availiable? Are there any good handheld gps sets? Ideally the ones that can give a grid ref, but lat/long will do. Theres a few basic Garmin ones going on ebay for £45ish | |

| yep mines the same 7" screen, but the dash on a pajero isn't very big, i'm tempted to make a plate and bracket for it, or just get a pda. | |
