Favorite GPS

[Longshot270]

Call me old fashion but I usually use a paper map that I print off of google maps. That has turns and distances and has never been wrong because I go through all the turns with their street view and satellite(when there is no street view or the picture was at night) to double check. I also use google to find the place I need to go and set a gps point near it. Then I enter that point into my trail GPS. I use my GPS on the river and trail so much it isn't worth having a truck only GPS. Before they had GPSs in computers the local utility companies used this specific model. I was also trained to use this one so navigating via compass or the "direct route" line is natural to me..even if there are buildings in the way.

There is a bunch of folks out here that all have these so the "automatic location updates" are very useful. Anytime you push the transmit button your location shows up on all the other people's maps.

Thats pretty cool, wish mine had that. Instead I have to write down my current gps location and send that to someone who then enters that into their unit.
