A while back I mentioned that I spent more repairing my Terra transponder
(almost $500) than everything else combined, then the GPS started
acting up.

Returning home to the Denver area I checked my Garmin 90 for time of sunset,
since I prefer not to fly at night.  Comparing that with my ETA it
looked good, but later in the day it became obvious I wasn't going to make
it.  Checking more closely, the date/time revealed that the Garmin thinks
it is 1958.

It’s three and a half years out of warranty and was still navigating OK,
I could live with it, but I figured it was probably a software bug
and maybe they would take care of it for a reasonable cost. If I got really
lucky they might even throw in a fresh database, so I shipped it in.

A few days later a box arrived, inside was another box containing a
brand new Garmin 92, free of charge. It has a 12-channel receiver and
several other improvements over the 90. Now that’s what I call Customer
Service.

Thanks Garmin, are you listening Terra?
