IMO, the 770 is very reliable, but like anything else, it's simply another tool in our toolbox. Like anything else, it takes some time to master. I plan my route ahead of time and if not sure I plug in Google maps and check it. Google maps gives me a birds eye view of where and on what kinds of roads I'll be traveling. I also don't rely on street addresses. I pull up the GPS coordinates off Google Maps and use those. This method puts me in exactly the correct spot I want to be in when I get where I'm going. Finally, while Base Camp is helpful, it does take a lot of brain power to master. (I gave up :) YMMV).....Dennis
Dennis, couple questions. 1) when you were setting up parameters did you include your toad as part of your over all length? 2)Do you use coach mode or car mode for directions?
