I asked a buddy of mine to borrow his GPS to test this over the weekend. He turned around and bought me one for my b-day yesterday.

How accurate can I expect the GPS to be. I haven't had much time to test yet...or driving distance rather, but I tested it over a 5 mile commute to work this morning, and it's almost dead on with my TS set to 2575. The analog speedometer gauge was consistently over approx 2mph in comparison to speed on the GPS.

Anyways, just wondering if you guys think that using a GPS is one the more accurate ways of checking distance....in comparison to mile markers, google maps, etc.
