Was wondering if any of you guys use these. I bought me one tonight from a guy for $50.00 didn't really know anything about it but the price sounded cheap so bought it. Love to hear from you guys about this.

I have never used an Etrex, I still use my old trusty XL12. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles the new models have but it gets the job done.

I have an old XL12 too, and it's great. At some point, I might go for a bells and whistles model, but you did get the right brand. I know folks who have etrex and they like them. About 12 years ago, I bought a used XL 12 for $50, and when I sent it back to the company for repair because it wasn't saving waypoints, Garmin sent me a brand new one (no charge). I got a GPS that sold (back then) for $350 for $50! Good luck with your new tool.
