I own a nuvi 855, my question is can I down load a trip created in a trip planning software like Trailer Life Campground Navigator?

Thanks for your time

Route import

The nuvi 855 has the advanced multi-point routing functions which includes the capability to import routes. The source file to be imported must be a .GPX file containing correctly formatted entries for the Garmin route point syntax. Several route planning programs can create these files including Garmin Mapsource, Garmin Basecamp, Microsoft Streets & Trips, Delorme Street Atlas USA, and the web based Mapquest. I am not familiar with the Trailer Life Campground Navigator program, but if it can output correctly formatted Garmin GPX route files, you should be able to transfer the routes to a nuvi 855.

Just curious, if you can create a trip and save it what file extension does it have?
