There are many, many good things on this site, Paul. Not only POI’s, but people. Lots of good ideas, some wild, some not. Remember too, Garmin offers pretty good support for those really technical problems. Enjoy the site and the people.

I'm glad to see you have found the site as useful as I have.

I think I'm in big trouble. :>( I just discovered this site last night, now I fear I will be spending all my time here instead of looking for a job. YIKES!! Seriously, like most I'm sure, I didn't realize this world existed and all the possibilities that lie ahead. I have a feeling this website will grow exponentially and it hasn't even scratched the surface yet. I haven't had time to read many of the posts so I hope I'm not repeating anything for the millionth time.

Being a resident of the Northwest and a transplant from the Midwest I am already planning on making a POI list for White Castle hamburger stands. Might as well make it easy to find these gems where ever they may be. At the moment, I'm getting ready to download the "In and Out" POI list.

Garmin Nuvi, 750

Welcome to the forum! I've only been here a short time myself but it's an excellent resource with good folks.

First, I'd like to thank all for the welcomes. It is hard to believe in spite of how fast life is, there are people willing to make a stanger feel welcome.

So far I haven't had any luck finding help on a Scion website so maybe someone here can respond.

My Nuvi 750 works fine in my wife's sport utility and my son's pickup, but it can't find a signal when I put it in my 2006 Scion xB. I assume it has something to do with the signal getting blocked by the nearly vertical windshield but no matter where I put it, it's a no-go. I purchased an external antenna on E-Bay yesterday in hopes of solving this problem but I would be curious to know where to look on this website to see if others have solved the same problem.

Welcome to both kilrbe1qazxcvb and Scanguy. I'm certain you will find this site to be a wonderful time sink - as in you'll marvel at how much time you sink into reading and learning.

Welcome! Your GPS can help get you to your interviews on time. It sure helped me when I was looking!

I have been using this site just for a few weeks, but a lot of people willing to help you with any problems.

There is alot of great info on this site. Very helpful community.

I agree I'm new to the nuvi crowd but I love that we have all these people posting things.

glad to have you aboard.

Welcome, this is an extremely useful site. Have fun with your new toy and enjoy all the fun POI's to explore.

Need to do some searching for the poi's that you want or try to make look at this link

Welcome to the friendliest, most informative site on the entire World Wide Web!

I hope you enjoy your new hobby and the knowledge you are about to gain from being here.

Welcome aboard! You will be amazed how much you can learn and how helpful people are here.

This site is awesome and I tell everyone I know about it!!!

I was fortunate enough to find this gem of a site when I was looking to buy my 1st GPS and I am glad to see how unselfish everyone here is and the humanity that is reflected through its digital space.
Thanks for making this nifty gadget so much more fun and efficient!

Thanks for all of the warm welcomes, folks! When I join new groups, usually I see a few "hi" messages. Not here! A ton of people said "welcome!". Almost makes a middle-aged guy blush with all of this attention.

Anyway.... yes, I've been scouring the boards and download area here. Lot's of great POI files and info, to say the least! I have the red light, speed camera, and rest stop files loaded in my Nuvi. I'm sure that I'll load other POI's before my next trip out of town.

I learned a trick for using my Nuvi 780 on hiking trails last weekend. I'll post that info in the Garmin area for others to see.... assuming that I don't find that someone already added the info to the board.

I posted a reply the other day and wanted to go back to it. Is there a way to find it (or this one when I forget where I posted it?)

On the menu on the upper right (under your account name), select "Recent Posts". You will see a list of recent topics, with two tabs - "All Recent Posts", and "My Recent Posts". Click on the "My Recent Posts" tab, and you will see a list of the topics you posted in. When I do that, I get all the topics I've posted in back to when I signed up two months ago. Just click on the topic of your choice to view it.

First you can you the search bar and do a simle search for your own inputed text.

or

you can go to your account button, then use the track feature and find it that was as well.

Now that you know what you can do with your GPS, you need to let all you friends know too. I've just been using mine locally for trips up to 150 miles but this summer I expect to put it to the test with a 5000 mile round trip. Find a restaurant? No problem, would you like American style or seafood or.....
How about a motel? Sure, lots to choose from and the phone number is there so you can call to see if they have openings. Tricky intersections? Not anymore.
