    TomTom is a good one i believe they sell them at Target and the price is pretty reasonable.

    According to Consumer Reports, there is a basic Tom Tom that sells around $250 that ranks near the top. After that, it’s a matter of personal choice of extras, such as larger display, more memory for extra maps (if you travel), talking directions, quick recalculation if you miss your turn or run into construction, etc. Basically, price will be a trade-off between what you want and what you need, but it’s not hard to spend upwards of $500 for a fairly nice unit.
