Haven't tried it yet, but I guess it could be handy if you were taking it off road for camping or something. Yup, you can also enter in Latitude and Longitude coordinates.

I only mount mine if I'm going a longer distance...

I was kinda like you, really never saw a need for it. However, we have really enjoyed it and gotten good use out of it. I don't know if it is because the 260 is smaller, but it gets "sweet" battery life. My only complaint is it takes it a long time get signal at first...maybe it is because the 260 does not have an external antenna. That is also a plus though, we don't even mount it on anything, one of us usually just holds it. We have a Garmin Nüvi 260 that my folks bought Carrie for x-mas this year.
