Yes that sounds right, that model is over $600, I don't need those things at this time.

DirtFlier:
I bought my 660 about 6-months ago and hearing Andray Hubble tell me at Tri-STAR that he bought one for $300+ so I looked it up when I got home and ordered one for $325.  As Jim said, the screen could be brighter so I've fitted a hood.  The Zumo 550, my old GPS, has a much brighter screen so I never had to use a hood but conversely, its hard drive memory is too small so couldn't hold the entire US unless you did it on a SIM card.

The text size on the 660 seems tiny compared to my Zumo 550 but I'm still learning about all the bells & whistles. Kind of wish I'd opted for the 590 now but it was a bit too pricey for my retiree's budget. 

Maybe I'll go for a ride today because it's in the mid-40s.  :-)

OldButNotDead:
I have a 660 and my only gripe is that the screen is small.  I've also mounted a Nuvi 2790 lmt with a 7" screen.  The big screen is ok but Nuvi's don't pair with my Sena 20s.  The fact is that I use preplanned maps and the directions through the Sena work way better for me than taking my eyes off the road to look at the GPS.
