I just got a 2 amp belkin car charger, but it can not keep up with the Nexus when navigation is running.

Anyone tested this with the nexus yet?

I have been using these for years. They are cheap, and they work very good and don't destroy your battery like some car chargers will. Also it has a nice blue glow. Give it a shot it's less than 5 bucks.

Like I said earlier Best Buy has the 3amp charger. I haven't used it on the Galaxy Nexus yet, but it worked well with my Thunderbolt and that phone guzzled down power.

Is that the one with the two USB? If so I bought that one and it couldn't keep up either.

No the one I got only had one USB port so all 3amps are going to the phone.

I used the charger I posted on the first page for navigation in 3g mode and had no problems keeping a charge and gain battery as well. I still highly suggest that Motorola charger, you shouldn't have any problems with it and its less than 5 bucks shipped...
That one definitely sounds like a good value and I have been happy with Moto chargers in the past. My only concern is that the charger is spec'd at just under 1 amp (950 mA).
I would be curious to see if you can run Navigation on 4G and how it holds up. The 4G data is much more power-consuming than 3G. As an added bonus, stream some music in the background and see if it can keep pace.
