Gps?
#1
I'm curious to know what GPS you guys use and how you like it? strong/weak points? I need something strictly for off roading.. I'm new to the whole GPS thing and wanted to get some advise on what to look for!

Points on the icon usage.

I'd say no matter what stick with Garmin. Their CS is amazing and they'll take care of everything.

Mine is older but I still use it for everything: http://www.higherground4x4.com/Garmin_Ique_3600.htm (even MP3's and solitare when I'm toilet wheeling)

Sc00by's got a couple good Garmin's too

i have an old garmin gpr 12 and it still works. i would also recommend garmin. i run a lowrance baja 540c now and its the best yet. great powered antenna and unless im under concrete or something i never lose a signal. it has a 4" color screen and can be loaded with map software for more detailed maps. you can even run sat radio through it according to the book.

Garmin's are the way to go, have the Nuvi 200 & GPSmap 60CSx (hand held) they both work great I use the Nuvi for Geocaching also.
And for HAM radio / APRS tracking I use the AvMap geostat5 still learning things on it, and it has a feature where you can connect a rear-view camera and have it show up on the display.
