I am giving some thought to a handheld Garmin GPS. It would be used ATV/UTVing, e-biking and when we travel outside of the United States. As handy as Google Maps/Waze, etc. are, there is still something to be said for a device that works without a data connection, particularly traveling outside of the US, ATV/UTVing or ebiking.
The Garmin Montanas 710/760 look pretty nice. For the price difference, maybe a version with InRaach would be a good choice.
For those that have current or older Garmin Montanas, are they a solid choice? I don't think the camera option is a deal breaker for me. I probably would not spend the extra money for that feature.
I would want the ability to use City Navigator on it as well as the ability to add additional amps, too.
Handhels using CN maps
Good question.
I have a couple of Handheld "MARINE units, but not sure they can use the CN maps or not.
I would think that they can.
GPSMAP 72 ??
I had a GPSMAP 72 (I think) and it was speced to be compatible with City Navigator. It was not compatible and eventually they gave me a NUVI 40 as compensation.
That experience was looooong ago and may not be indicative of todays facts.

There's a bunch of devices that support Garmin City Navigator. The Garmin Montana 7xx series are one of them. I have the Garmin Montana 700. The 710 just came out and for what I can see is that it has a USB-C plug. The Garmin Montana 700 has a micro USB plug.
