    We don't need no stinking GPS :) we use our iPad and a app called "maps", with a stratus antenna. It has zoom in, and out, we can see which lanes we should be in for the next turn all that stuff.

    And what if you don't have one of those stinkin iToy phones?

    Then you use your stinking lap-top or what ever.
    iPad isn't a phone, by the way.
    It's the app, and it will work on any device. the lap-top works great opened and lying on the dash. makes it easy and doesn't cost anywhere near what the new GPSs do.

  • Just bought a Garmin RV760LMT, but have only used it around town to get used to it. Seems to get consistently better ratings than the Rand McNally, and I like it so far, but haven't used it enough in "real world" RV use to give it a two-thumbs up (or down) yet....

  • Please do a search of the forums. There have been a lot of threads lately with discussions about RV specific GPS units. You will find a lot of great information.
