Ford to Give Away Garmin StreetPilot C320

Well, unfortunately this promo is only in Taiwan for now, but Garmin announced that it will work with Ford Taiwan to give away a new Garmin StreetPilot C320 with every new car bought between now and the Chinese New Year. The program began in November, with just one car model, but it has been extended to several car models because it has been so popular. Interesting promotion, and interesting that it has been so popular. Humm, imagine what this would do for Garmin if they did this with every Ford vehicle in the US?!?!?

The C320 series is a lower end model that offers downloadable maps onto SD card, but has a good size touchscreen and a great interface. We used the Streetpilot C340 here at the GPS Lodge, and wrote a review on it (We loved it) - read the article. Also, you can read a review on the StreetPilot C330 here.

"We are very excited to be partnered with Ford to offer our most popular automotive navigation unit for the Taiwanese market," said Gary Kelley, Garmin's vice president of marketing. "It's further evidence that Garmin products are sought after around the world."

"Ford Lio Ho has been very pleased with the response to our Garmin giveaway - so pleased that we've extended the offer to allow more people to take advantage, said Jeffrey Y.C. Shen, president of Ford Lio Ho. "Young people and families can begin the new year with a new Ford vehicle and the peace-of-mind of reliable GPS navigation."

Garmin's StreetPilot series provides portable, in-car navigation that is simple for anyone to use directly out-of-the-box with comprehensive and detailed street-level map data of Taiwan. After selecting a destination from the touch screen, the unit will guide the user to their destination through Chinese voice prompted and written directions with a three-dimensional, moving map. If the driver misses a turn, the StreetPilot automatically calculates a new route to the destination. The StreetPilot may be mounted very quickly to an automobile’s windshield by a suction-mount cradle.
