Garmin RV 760LMT any Usage Findings
I have been thinking about upgrading to the RV 760 and wanted to know if anyone has any real world usage findings. It looks good on the Garmin site.

Our coach is parked for a couple more weeks, so I put the RV 760 in the Jeep to become familiar with it. I have figured out that when creating a "Route" in Garmin's Basecamp software and sending it to the GPS, it becomes a "Trip" not a "Route".
If you create a highly modified "Route" in Basecamp, the GPS will not recalculate it and the "Trip" will follow it quite nicely.
Once I got that distinction through my head, I think the RV 760 and I will get along just fine.
Waiting for a bean bag mount for the coach dash board. New menus are different than the Nuvis, but I'm getting used to it. Seems fast and the screen is very nice. It also appears to know about lots of campgrounds that are not in the standard map POIs. When you plug it into Basecamp, they show up there as well as the GPS.
A new GPS is always an adventure ...
