As for GPSes, I do agree. We've owned both Lowrance and Garmin, and
liked the Lowrance slightly better, but Lowrance just doesn't seem to be
as serious about the aviation market as Garmin. Garmins have better
resale value, and hold their value much better over time. I feel that
Garmin supports their product better than Lowrance over the life of the
product.

Of course they do! They charge more for their product and when its out of
warranty, they charge for more to have the unit serviced. The cost
difference will buy you a brand new Lowrance...assuming Lowrance's service
doesn't allow you to upgrade with trade in.
