GPX
I very recently purchased a Garmin 765T. I love it so far. I noticed on this site the Extra POI editor. I downloaded it.
I added POI's from this site. But only the name of the place shows on my GPS. I noticed that I can display Name and description in the Edit window of the Extra POI Editor. But is this has to be done with each entry. Any way to make this happen for ALL?

Gps Saves more Fuel than Hybrids??
I have a theory, unproven but I think it is true. I know how many times I have driven out of the way a bit to find someplace...and I know there are way more GPS units being sold that hybrids....so I am saying I think GPS saves more fuel in the Big picture than the Hybrids.
