GPS City has had good pricing, around $350.00

Not the best "Rally" gps though.

I have gone from a Garmin III to a Garmin 60 to 60CSX to Colorado to a Montana650T. I also have the Garmin Navigator V that is installed on my GSA.

The Montana is the best of the bunch! As Jack stated get City Navigator with lifetime updates. However I know a bunch of people that get free routable from http://garmin.openstreetmap.nl/ and they are happy enough.

I have the T(Topo) model. The unit came with Topos installed. You can get the Montana without topos and download free ones as well. For me I liked having them installed. The 650 included a camera. That is something I almost never use and would not pay extra for it again.

I have it mounted on my handlebars and have never had a problem with glare or size of screen

I have never done one of your rallies so I don't know why Jack said it doesn't do great. I have found 1000's of geocaches using both the city nav to get me close and then the TOPO to bring me to the exact spot.

I also use the Montana in my car and take it with me while flying for business. It works great.

Dust sucks so I'll lead.
