I just got one too! Well for mothers day, and I love it, AND I was going to blog about it! Not anymore LOL! Mine does have Australian voices and I do like the women’s voices better to…

Not sure about bare and bear, have wondered myself!

we used one in my FIL’s car and it didn’t know the street was concrete blocked off – and we had arguments over it DH and I – no street directory to get out of the street maze.
I would prefer the English lady too … hate a man telling me where to go.

See, I would disagree – I would say bear as in “to carry one place to the other” or “to hold oneself in a suitable way” or even perhaps “to turn in the stated direction” (thanks handy dandy Longmans for confirming that)…

Bare is to take off – which, depending on your driving (and your voiceover) you may decide to do anyway. (I know, I know, different sort of take)

The best thing about our GPS is the “distance left to travel” bit. Now instead of asking us how long to go every 5 minutes our son keeps track on the screen. All the kids like to give us the directions as well. My husband set ours to moo (like a cow) at certain points of interest – don’t ask me why, I have no idea. Anyway, it turns out the kids think this is hilarious :-)
