Hi,

I have the 2720 unit that needs to have the screen repaired. Since it is an OEM model, Garmin wants $170 to fix (versus $99 for non OEM) .

I can get the Zumo 660 for $540 (after rebate).

Should I fix the 2720 or go for it ?

I know I will need a new mount for the Vision, but assume the wiring harness will be the same.

Thanks

Jeff

I would personally go for the Zumo. I have the 2820 (2720 with Bluetooth) that I got for $300 last year new. The screen is small and can be tough entering an address on the fly. A real PITA if you know what I mean. I would also recommend the lifetime map updates for $100. With all the construction happening, it is nice to know that you can update for the life of the unit.
