At CES in January of 2008, Jeep Consumer Products announced the introduction of a Jeep-branded GPS. While most navigation device manufacturers are moving toward 4.3-inch screens, Jeep has equipped the RT-300 with a paltry 3.5-incher.
The choice of this 4:3, 320-by-240-pixel screen surprising, especially considering RT-300’s relatively high price ($249.99 direct). The one feature that might go a little way toward justifying the price is the RT-300’s nubby, soft, rubber protective sleeve. The unit has a tire-tread-like, ruggedized-ish styling.
This review was conducted using a production Magellan RoadMate 1430, running firmware 1.34 and Basemap NavStreets version 31.
Unless otherwise stated, all preferences were left on their default setting. Routing tests were performed both on and off the road, including an 800+ mile road trip from New York City to Raleigh and back. Screen brightness was measured using a Mastech Digital 4-range luxmeter (LX1330B). Speaker loudness was measured using an Extech Type 2 digital sound level meter (rated accuracy of ±1.5dB).
