My new R1200GS-ADV is on its way. I'm having trouble choosing which GPS to use. I have a 276c on my LT and like it. So i'm considering a 376 for the GS to get the XM. But Garmin just came out with a StreetPilot 2730 which also has XM but adds traffic and pre loaded maps. Does anyone have experience with both?
I have the 376C and love it, it's on my LT and have used it for 6 months now without a hiccup. I like having the better screen, 512mb card, XM Radio and Weather Radar in one package not to mention its actually waterproof being a Marine Unit. I have and Adventure on the way and will be mounting the 376C with a TT mount just above the Instrument cluster.
Consider the '378 -- pretty much the same as the '376, but comes with enough internal memory to hold all the City Select maps, and retains the memory card slot for 'special' maps (e.g., topos). I don't think the XM receiver is included like it is with the '376 (must buy separately). It's expensive, but hey.... Supposed to be released in May.
