Free map alternatives instead of from Garmin?

 

Hey, how's it going? Is there a free, alternative place to get maps for my nuvi 760 in lieu of buying updates through Garmin?

Other maps

You can make your own as described here:

Here are some ready-made maps:

.

Here's another place to get free maps. These are routable.

http://garmin.na1400.info/routable.php

However, I would not recommend any of these sites as an alternative to getting official map updates.

You would be better served in most cases by just sticking with the maps that you have. There are not likely to be major changes in most area.

Also, these alternate maps do not, for the most part, have points of interest. Many of them do not support searchable addresses.

I would recommend these map sites, particularly GPS File Depot for TOPO maps, for maps that are in ADDITION TO your preloaded maps such as topo or other map regions/locations.

Thanks
