Drivesmart 65
You know those along the road or screen area icons you get as your driving as in Gas stations, restaurants and more stuff like that? I don't like that clutter. I want to turn them off, like i did with my 3590LMT and 2598LMT. I can't find a way to do that with this thing.
HELP....lol

Garmin Basecamp Problems on Mac Catalina
I have been a long time Basecamp users Mac. I know many folks don't like this app, but I have yet to find anything else on a desktop that has the database capabilities like it. But now I'm looking harder. I was running Basecamp 4.8.7 on MacBook pro in Catalina with no issues until I made the mistake of allowing it update to 4.8.8.

Old Exit Numbers I-84
Despite the last two Garmin map updates, noticed that Garmin still has the old exit numbers for Interstate 84 in New York, at least between Newburgh NY and the CT state line (didn't pay attention in CT).
Luckily, most of the exit signs on the road have a small "Old Exit X" on the mounting bars below the new, large, sign.

Drive Assist 51 with DashCam
I am looking to replace my nuvi 2689 and Dashcam with the above unit.
I use a dash mount for the nuvi as in some states it is illegal to attach items to your windshield. My dash cam is mounted on the back of my rear view mirror.
Is there a dash mount that you can purchase for the Drive Assist 51 or any other GPS with Dashcam?.

Why no password on newer Garmin models?
I'm still wondering why Garmin decided to stop including a password option on power-up.

Virgin 3597
Just picked up a NOS 3597LMT.
It responds quicker than my original in route calculation and screen refresh. Any ideas what causes the slower response? I'm assuming all 3597s have the same processor. The serial number on the new one is about 1400 higher than my original.

Which charging cable is better for my new drivesmart 55?
I have a gtm-60 from my 3590 and the ta-20 that came with the DS 55.
Both work, but which one is better suited for the drivesmart 55?
If the DS55 doesnt get digital traffic and only gets it through the app I might as well give the gtm-60 to my dad (whom I gave the 3590 to)

Just upgraded from a 3590lmt to a drivesmart 55
Like the title says, upgraded, figured it was time. the 3590 was 8 years old. I like the 55 mostly and added a ton of POI's. It's faster and BT pairs better (but still has horrible issues with pairing when you turn the device on, and I know it's not my note 9.. Believe me, the 3590 BT stack was way worse, it wouldn't even let the device shut down unless I turned off BT).

NuviCam and Bluetooth issues
My NuviCam BT issues were finally resolved by Garmin about year ago but looks like it broken again. It could be new Apple IOS causing issues. It is not consistent anymore. Secondly, it does not allow me to connect BLE only anymore. I have to connect BT as well. Before I used to use BLE only for traffic and weather. I don't use BT for Phone etc.

? on Smartphone Link
Finally was in an area with significant traffic. Smartphone link app on phone showed connected to Garmin. Icon for connection showed on the Garmin. The traffic info received was very generic, such as Accident on I10. No east/west bound, no mile marker etc. Not very useful IMO. Do I have some setting wrong or am I just expecting too much?

Maps for multiple Garmins through Express
I have 4 Garmins and updating them all takes some time. Is there a way to either, download the map file and have it installed through Garmin Express or have Express do it through a setting that I don't see?
Thank you all, I've got to learn to use BaseCamp. I've tried to but when I export it to device, I can't find it. I have 3 Nuvi's and one Drive GPS

BC 40 Backup Camera Stuff
I have questioned if the BC 40 gives a “Low Battery” message before the batteries are completely dead and never gotten an answer, even from Garmin. The BC 40 gave me that answer today when a “Low Battery” message appeared at the top of the DriveSmart 65 screen.

Issue with mount for Nuvi 3597
After updating to the new map and installing the Nuvi in the car, I noticed that I was not receiving any sound. I removed the GPS from the mount and got sound from the Nuvi. Upon reinstalling it, again, no sound. I did this a couple more times with the same result. I removed the Nuvi once again and rubbed my fingers over the pins on the mount, reinstalled the Nuvi and guess what?

POIs in Zumo 595
So I have a Zumo 595 and I have the POIs Sw loaded on my PC. I went into Basecamp and made several Waypoints (like water falls, Gas stations and places to eat) and saved them in a separate file. I exported them to my PC and ran the POI sw and saved them to my 595.
