Issues with Nuvi 50LM

First of all, I did a full system backup before I started so I can always go back if I have to.

I offered to update the map on a friend's Nuvi 50LM but made the mistake of not understanding the differences between it and my Nuvi 1450.

Issue #1:

"No misfortune is so bad that whining about it won't make it worse."

wouldn't it be a cool Garmin app?

Hey all smile

So I'm driving around and I'm using my Garmin 3597 and needed some gas. So i use my Garmin to find me a gas station which it does with no issues; but then i start to think... wouldn't it be really cool if it could also sort (instead of just by distance) by lowest price?

Remove vehicle "bundles" ??

GE shows I have ALL of the vehicle bundles installed. However, I only have one vehicle on unit, and a couple of backups in a directory on the SD.

So where are these? ANd, how do I get rid of them. Heck, I don't remember even downloading them, unless Garmin backgrounded it somehow.

Saving an intersection on the 2597 LMT

So I'm having an issue that is only occurring with intersections. I know that you can save intersections because I have others saved, but in this particular instance, I find the intersection, click the "i" and then click on the menu pullout and click save. The menu pullout disappears, but nothing happens.

Is there a way to customize Nuvi 2595LMT

Is there a way to customize the Where to screen? Ok you can add short cuts the toe where to screen but there is no option for Custom POIs.

uhaul truck routing

We are renting a uhaul truck to move my son to his new apartment. Is there any way to use the Garmin GPS Nuvi 775 to avoid parkways. Or is there any online sources to map directions for a truck. Thanks.

What Would Be Your Ultimate Automobile And Smartphone Navigation Choices From Garmin?

As posted above, knowing what you know now, say you wanted to purchase both a Garmin automobile navigator and a smartphone with Garmin app, what would you get?

Would you get a Garmin Nüvi 3597LMTHD for the windshield and an Apple iPhone 5S with the Garmin StreetPilot Onboard app?

nuvi 3590LMT

So finally today I bought nuvi 3590LMT instead of getting 2597lmt, any suggestions? Hopefully I made a right choice

Updating Maps on Micro SD card

I was in England last year and had my GPS stolen. I had to buy another Nuvi 52LM to find my way around, but unfortunately it only had the UK, Ireland maps on it.

Garmin vs Rand McNally

Is there a difference in the data provided for a Garmin CSV or a Rand McNally CSV? Question comes from looking at the POI for WinCo and a few others that show a GPX for Garmin and a CSV for Rand McNally.

Basically, will the RM CSV be the same as if created for Garmin?

So, if someone were buying an Apple iPhone 5S today and wanted a Garmin app, would they be better off with Garmin StreetPilot Onboard or Garmin Viago?

Maps on Flash Drive

I understand the process for installing on an SD card for use with the nuvi. I want to install to a Flash Drive to use with my PC so I can remove from the HD and still be able to use with BaseCamp.

If there is a post I missed please direct, if not please chime in.
