[QUOTE="RM_guy, post: 1269839, member: 20652"] OK, I’m gonna get a GPS and I want to make sure I get the functions that I need…and can actually use. I’ve been doing some research and the Garmin 76CSx looks like the top of the line and best applicable for dirt bike use. It comes with a compass and altimeter which is cool but I’m not sure if I need it (the 76Cx comes with out it). Here’s a couple of links with info on it [url]http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000CSQRYS/ruggedelegance14439-20/ref=nosim[/url] [url]http://www.thegpsstore.com/Garmin-GPSMAP-76CSx-Color-Handheld-GPS-P880C0.aspx?gclid=CIrJ2o6K9pECFQEfFQodRxEevw[/url] So here are some questions that I hope some of you can help me with. I searched and found some stuff but it was a old and may not be the latest. - Is the Garmin 76SCx the best for mapping trails in heavily wooded areas? It claims it can but does it? I want to be able to overlay my track onto a map for reference. - What maps and extra software do I need? Topo?? MapSource Trip (what ever that is)? Waypoint Manager (what ever that is)? City Navigator? It comes loaded with Americas AutoRoute basemap that can give turn by turn directions. Is it detailed enough to navigate on back roads and/or small town streets? I plan on using it for road trips in the car…and of course getting to prime riding spots! - What style bar mount works best? I ride a lot of tight tree and brush infested trails and don’t want the thing getting snagged off the bike. I was going to build my own but it sure is easier to just buy one. This one looks nice [url]http://www.thegpsstore.com/Shrimp-MC-ATV-Base-with-Universal-Cradle-P785C0.aspx[/url] - Who has the best deals? Amazon sells it for $313.95 with free shipping. - What am I not asking that should be asked? Thanks!! [/QUOTE]
