by the best,,,,you need to say how it's gonna be used because you can spend anything from $150 to $1K for "the best". I like my Garmin eTrex Legend,,,load it with topo maps of ONF and I don't think it can be beat unless you get the color version,,,,and I think you can pick one up for about $100-150.

it is at the top end of that price range but if you use it like i do it is well worth the $ i have made some nice routes threw the ONF with this unit with cross-overs at # roads.and dead ends.. I almost can get from rodmans damm alll the way down to scrub and a little south to sr 42 without riding on a # road.. it is an awesome unit capatable with the topo maps and computer intergration(sp?)
