protectThere's a new way you can locate the cheapest gas before going to the pump. Many of us don't realize how much we're paying for a gallon of gas, until we pull into the gas station and start pumping. But imagine if you could find out what the gas prices were before you ever got to the gas station? Garmin has come out with a brand new GPS that tells you the gas prices while you're driving in your car. Garmin has several models that get gas price information from msn. The GPS not only tells you where the gas stations are but it lists all the prices and then it guides you to the gas price you want. "Let's say we're going to a gas station and it's 3.85 but one down the street is 3.83. You know that's a better price and you can go to the cheapest gas prices." When you look at the GPS, the prices in green are the lowest. The GPS also tells you when the price was last updated. As we discovered, that's important to pay attention to, a price updated two hays ago had already changed when we got to one gas station.
