Navigation In More Than One Time Zone

 

My wife, SIL, BIL and I are ATVing in Michigan this weekend. I am using my Garmin Zumo XT on my Can Am Outlander. At one point, I entered a destination on the Garmin, and while routing it displayed local time 1154 and arrival time 1104! It took me a moment to realize that I was starting in one time zone and would be arriving in a different time zone.

Do ANY Garmins display time zone change while routing? I can see where that might be handy to have, particularly if someone didn't realize that there route was going through more than one time zone

Not aware of one that alerts you. But there is a old time zone file here that you can look at. http://www.poi-factory.com/node/6652 .Maybe you can polished the old file up.. You will need to set alerts for the locations. See http://www.poi-factory.com/node/25730
