Rating: - Just what I wanted
This is exactly what I was looking for... a "portable" mount that I can switch from one car to the other.

Rating: - A very high quality GPS base
The Garmin portable base is a top quality unit, and easily snaps onto the back of the GPS case. It's heavy, flexible, non-scratching base makes it easy to place almost anywhere.
Well worth the money.

Rating: - Still slides around
I bought the Garmin GPS for my wife's minivan, but we never use it because it's not readily accessible like the factory built-in GPS in my car. We were unable to find a flat spot in the minivan for the glue-down disc that came with the Garmin unit. This no-skid dashboard mount was supposed to solve the problem. The Ford Windstar minivan's dashboard deck has a textured friction surface, so I had high hopes. Still it slipped around too much for my wife to use it. And no, it's not the way she drives that causes the slips.

May we'll try one of those air vent mounts, but I'm really tired of spending money on a device that never gets used.

Works great - sure beats the windshield mount that keeps falling off the windshield. Also allows me to move it to a place in the car that is easier to reach!
