Gets You There (November 17, 2003)

Reviewed By: Al L. - Fond du Lac, WI

I am very satisfied with the Magellan SporTrak- Map GPS. It is accurate, graphically clear and readable. The control buttons on the face simplify entry of data. Being waterproof is an advantage since I have had it out in the rain twice with no adverse reactions. The unit is economical in the use of battery power.

One caution the company uses a rebate service which is not very reliable. It denied the rebate on my first Magellan SporTrak not the SporTrak-Map because it would not accept the original receipt. I returned the unit and purchased the SporTrak-Map unit without the rebate just to save the hassle.

We decided we needed a GPS after our last hiking trip. We were told the the Sport GPS by Magellan
was a great choice and we would agree. It makes hiking a pleasure not having to worry about paying such close atttention to your surroundings so as to not get lost.
Your customer service department was awesome to work with, we thank you very much.

Magellan Sportrack Map is great to travel with (May 06, 2003)

Reviewed By: Ken C. - Pensacola, FL

I received my Magellan Sportrack Map, as expected, on the day UPS quoted originally as the delivery date. My 12V/PC interface cable from my 315 unit previously purchased connected perfectly. We went on a vacation three days later and the Sportrack Map was fantastic. The preloaded US highways were a great help, especially as we did a lot of exploring. What a great purchase! What a great deal, too! I couldn't be happier with my Sportrack Map and I couldn't be happier with Vanns.com.

I got the Magellan SporTrak Map for my husband for his Christmas present. I haven't used it myself, but without reading the instructions on how to use it he took it right out of the box, put the batteries in it and started using it right away without any trouble at all. He is very pleased with it. Thank you so much!

Magellan Sportrak Map handheld GPS review (July 29, 2002)

Reviewed By: Tom F. - Coatesville, PA

I recently purchased the Magellan Sportrak GPS from Vanns.

As I have never owned a GPS of any type, nor actually used one, I researched the various types via the web. Not knowing what to expect, I was/am pleasantly surprised with my new unit

A GPS that would work work rather easily right out of the box was my preference and the Magellan Sportrak Map sounded like the one for me (and other members of my family who seem to get lost on a regular basis).

It showed up on time (bought it on-line and had it shipped 2 day air) and ready for a cross country road trip.

The unit surprised me with its compact size (fits easily in your hand), its accuracy (mark the location within feet) & ease of use (my 11 year old set up go-to routes without reading a word of the documentation).

The standard features include a pre-loaded map, intuitive button controls and 7 easy to understand screens. I used it extensively on the drive into strange cities and even caught myself going the wrong direction at one point.

Satellite lock-in times were variable, but dependable. The manual is big, but as it states, it is not necessary to read it before using the GPS.

I would recommend this unit to anyone looking for a handheld GPS, especially someone who wants a full function unit at the right price. Although I will use it on the highway, I can see the advantages it would bring a hiker or boater. The price is affordable and it works 'right out of the box' --- batteries were included.
