What's More Accurate--Speedometer or GPS?
Going down a flat highway on cruise control my speedometer shows my truck going 73 mph--Nuvi 765T says 68--who's right?
A 1999 Tacoma 4x4 ext cab is my main rig. I run 31 10.50 R15 tires which came stock on my TRD version. I know that oversized tires and/or rear diff mods can impact speedo accuracy, but generally speaking the GPS should be more accurate right?

Need help with a time/world clock problem on a 765
Hi all,
My clock is showing an hour later than the actual time. I deselected "automatic" & set it manually so now the clock shows the correct time but when I set a route the arrival time is still an hour off. Interestingly, its world clock shows that today is Monday July 16, 2029 (time flies).

Change in performance on c530 since updating to latest NuMaps
Since updating to the .30 version and my C530 updating 1 version to the latest firmware, I have noticed a marked change in performance when working with Custom POIs. They are loaded on my c530. Previously, after selecting Custom POIs, I would select the particular group I am interested in and it would appear almost instantly. Now there is a several second delay.

Comparing old and new units, and muddling through the model series
Hello, all. I'd bought my first Garmin (and first GPS) in Spring 2004, preparing for a cross-country road trip. It was a StreetPilot 2620 and boy, did that come in handy while wandering the country.
But the car I bought in 2006 had a navigation system built-in; it wasn't nearly as good as the Garmin--see

Anyone finding good Black Friday deals on Garmin GPS?
Amazon had the 285WT for $130, I think. But the price had gone up since then. You can still get the 265WT for $160 with free shipping and no tax most places.

proximity alert
Please help me. I have a Nuvi 755T and I loaded a lot of poi's but I can not get it to show up on map or get the alert sounds to work. To start with,, YES I have loaded pois and when I follow the directions, I go to TOOLS-SETTINGS- BUT there is no proximity point icon to go to. I can load pois and go to them but I want to have alert sound when I get close.

Deleting unneeded language files on Nuvi
Lots of language files taking up space on my Nuvi. I don't plan to sell it to a non-English speaker (ok, I might keep Spanish), so I could make room for the 2011 map, which is sure to be another gig or so.
OK to delete?

Holiday Inns
I was trying to download the POI for Holiday Inns.
The only one I couldfind was a RAW file.
when I try to open it, it tries to open in Adobe reader. That program will not read this type of file.
How do I change it so it will go to Excel?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hard Reset for Map Glitches
I read somewhere about doing a Hard Reset after downloading a map.
I downloaded 2010.3 and found a highway ramp that showed on the map, but for some reason my NUVI 350 seemed to think it didn't when it plotted a route.
When I got about halfway around the ramp, it seemed to recognize things properly.
Is a hard reset the right way to go or is this a map glitch?
