Garmin talk

I was looking over the vehicles on Garmin site and noticed a few new ones. At least they were new to me!

Wingspan
Moonshot
Chipotle Burrito
Felt Bicycle

I have bought a SD card with City Navigator for Australia to load or access through my nuv1 250W- which has the European maps preloaded. How can I access the Oz maps? I am travelling to Oz next week!

I bit the bullet and upgraded the unit. (v4.70)
Everything is ok so far...

The reason I upgraded was based on the traffic reciever update. It claimed to add another traffic provider.
I already have TNN. And that works fine.
But I see no additional info on what I 'thought' would have included navteq traffic.
Of course I'm using the GTM20

you think is going to be good for semi-trailer

Hi, Can anybody let me know, how can i get displayed compass somewhere on the corner permanently like i saw on the magellan. Thanks

I just purchased a Garmin 775T unit that comes with Free Traffic. Does this include the MSN Direct Service? I live in Fairfax Va. and appear to be in the coverage area but I can't see this enhanced service. Thanks!

Meijer online has the Garmin 260 for 138.99 with free shipping and a friction mount.

A co-worker just bought the card for a Europe trip. Can I copy th file on her card and put it on another card to use in my 765T? I read somewhere that the card is coded to the purchasers serial#. Is there away around that/change code? Thanx in advance!!

I have a NUVI 8 Series when I load the POI's from POI loader to my gps it tells me they loaded but when I go to cutom POI on the gps I cant find them. Can any one help with this?

Thanks, Larry

I needing some help on getting a Harley Davidson dealership POI with HD logo loaded on my Zumo 550, and having the POI reflect the name of Motorcycle or Hog, in the list of POI's, 1 have a 2 GB slot card, I thought I had everything going right, but specific name for HOG or Motorcycle in the POI selection

I set up 3D track up setting for my Garmin Nuvi 660. but track on the screen is not straight up, it looks little towards right side I mean on angle like this "/" , Not like this"|". Does anyone know hot to fix this? I already reset from the back of the unit. but no luck.
Please help..
Thanks...........

I started having a problem with my touch screen a few days ago. When I turn the Nuvi on, it's difficult or impossible to get the touch screen to respond. The strange thing is that later in a journey everything is fine again. And then the next time I start it, the problem is back again.

WOW, I WISH THERE WAS A GPS SYSTEM THAT TOOK INTO CONSIDERATION TRAFFIC LIGHTS, I CAN'T BELIEVE SOME OF THE WAYS MY GPS WANTS TO TAKE ME, TO PUT ME ON THE HIGHWAY IT WANTS TO TAKE ME ON A ROUTE THAT HAS MANY LONG TRAFFIC LIGHTS THAT INCREASES MY TRAVEL TIME BY QUITE A BIT, ANYBODY HAVE ANY IDEAS ON THIS

I have Garmin 750, how can I get speed limits displayed in canada, it displays while I drives in USA.

Ok my friends, I am tired of researching all the models and features out there and am ready to buy my new gps this weekend.. but I could use a little "push" from some of you. my choices either the 760 ( like the black color as opposed to the silver on the 750 ) or the 755T. does anyone know if the 760 has hotfix for faster satellite acquisition.

Truckers, if you have been looking for that GPS to help you with commercial routes, it has arrived. Garmin announced this week the release of their nwe "long haul" gps unit. The Nuvi 465T features the NTTS Directory, ability to set truck specs, life time traffic subscription and lane assist. All for $499. Hooray, I'm trading in my Nuvi 850.

I have a couple of new vehicles I made from 3D
models found on the web:

1) 67 Shelby GT500
2) Shelby Cobra
3) Airwolf (Bell 222 Helicopter)

Grab 'em here....

Thanx to Aarrgghh for the primer on making these
.SRF files!!!

I'm hoping to release an application I wrote to
automatically pull ALL of the pictures together,

As a general driving around setting, what would you recommend, Faster Time or Shorter Distance? It seems that the default Route Preference is Faster Time.

I have a nuvi 680 and i am wondering if there is a way to have it display compass headings in Degrees for example if true north is 0° and i wanted to go say 165° . hope i explaind that well enough for someone to give me a answer .

Thanks
