streets&trips-Mexico
We have S&T on our lap top. Will it be of any use in Mexico? Should we put any S&T information on the lap top before we start out?

You have to have a Garmin Nuvi that can do routes. Several older and/or smaller models do not have that feature/ capability.
You should also know what the number of routes the unit can handle. I've had to clear routes out of my Nuvi 1490LMT to make room for a complicated route.
While I have an SD card in both my current Nuvi - I've never used it to transfer a .GPX file to the unit. I always connect via a USB cable and drop the .GPX file created by S&T into the folder on the unit like using a flash drive.
The Nuvi 50LM I have does not have the ability to have routes imported. Lord knows I've tried. I can export into the Nuvi, but the routes are not useable. Several Google searches confirm this.
Here is a recent list of Garmin products that can import routes from other sources (S&T, Base Camp):
nuvi 2200, 2300, 2400, 2405, 2505, 3400, 3500, or 3700 series, LIVE 1695, LIVE 2300 series, or a deal device
nuvi 465, 500, 700, 705, 800, 805, 1400, 1690, or 5000 series, or a zumo
