Can you suggest a store in Quito where I can buy a GPS with Ecuador road maps. We will be renting a car and traveling extensively throughout the country on our search for a new home.
Thanks.

I don’t know of any — would not your GPS from home work in Ecuador? Oswaldo Munoz — see contact info in the Experts section here — is my go-to guy on anything to do with travel in Ecuador. I’ll ask him and get back to you.
Oswaldo tells me sell that you can buy GPS equipment in Quito in a store that is located on the second floor of Centro Comercial El Condado (Mall El Condado — very nice). He does not recall the name of the store but it is easy to find. Also for getting the route maps, you can get them in the web in “Mercado Libre” and look up “mapas ruteables del Ecuador”. The cost of a GPS here is about 270 to 300 dollars.
