There is no doubting the Garmin eTrex's abilities as a efficient GPS system. However, doubt must be cast over the dubious ethical policies of its parent company, Garmin Ltd.. After detailed research was carried out on the stance of companies on a number of different ethical issues such as animal testing and genetic modification, Garmin Ltd. has been awarded a low ethical rating by Gooshing. For a more thorough breakdown of why Garmin Ltd. was awarded this rating, please click on the stars above.
