New Toy! I got a GPS, what about you?                     no thanks
1. it cost to much ,
2. here in my small country í dont need unless I go drivin on the claciers in a snow storm s like some people are havinfun with

3, yes in America where everything seems so big , although
last time i came there we got GPS system in the car and still we got
lost , but I thinks thats becouse there were three vikings in the car
Irish/scottish/Icelandic and that is not a good compination
in a car ... to a right way to go ... :O) hee hee

so I dont need one , I have been drivin over the mountains
to work for 12 years in alsorts of weather blind snowstorms
and with crazy winds up 40 mtr pr sec you dont see a thing
maybe half meter in front of you ,,, still I always made it home
in my family VOLVO 240 mostly we build the road higer than the land
is so the wind will take the snow and blow it away :O) but still
you cant see a damm thing . Here we go to work , we dont care
if its blind or not , unless its so crazy crazy , then we stay home ....for short while :O) its so fun drivin in the snowstorms .

do I wish I would one these gps things , no it wont drive my car
I still need to look out of the window , when I dont have to stear it
and then I get one I can sleep on my way home :O)

all the best from Iceland in a springtime weather its 8+ and the wind is from the south with rain , while most of europe is covered with snow . some how I feel it should the other way around .

Skarpi Iceland .
