What is the best price versus value for a automotive GPS unit?
ByI am starting a new job and will be driving a tow truck.
The company supplies local maps, but my thought is that a reliable GPS unit would be able to take me directly to where the vehicle needs to be picked up, and where it needs to go
without having to keep reading a map.

The best price for a GPS will be 199.99 retail, then you will get an off brand name ex. Mios . If you want a better value and higher quality, go with a brand name like Magellan or Garmin they have been in the business a long time, but their systems will run 249.99-299.99 and up.
I bought an older Magellan from buy.com for 149.99 and its great. I used to have a Mios and it was missing dozens of streets and it was just a Piece’O crap. My recommendation is shell out the few extra bucks for a Magellan/Garmin
