Garmin RV760's are now shipping

Here's the video cable that is linked to on the RV760 site, appears to be the same one a lot of folks sell as Garmin video cables. A mini plug on one end (which goes into the GPS) and a female composite connection on the other.

I'm considering getting one of these to upgrade the current 1490 and the current document downloads on the Garmin site don't show what I'm looking for so I have for anyone that has gotten one a couple of questions if you could answer. Specifically:

1. Does it accept an micro SD card like previous units and is there a size limit on the card.

2. How large is the internal memory in the unit itself

3. I assume it takes a simple RCA plug type input for an aux backup camera and can you take a picture of where and what the various inputs look like and where they are located on the unit.

Thanks

#1...Yes, but the manual doesn't say anything about a size limit.
#2...7 GB
#3...Looks like the same connection as the dezl 760lmt

They do have the manual up on the Garmin site:

Manual

I've looked at the RV manual before I posted as I stated in my OP and now have looked at the Dezl manual and neither specify the type of video in type jack and most backup systems come with a video out cable with an RCA plug on the end and I just wanted to ensure that what these units had for aux video in was in fact an RCA plug type input.

I want to see one in person, but if I have to order one I just wanted to make sure I have all that is needed initially to connect my backup video system.

Have not seen this unit, but I did look at the manual. Usually Garmin show screen shots and advertises the features of their units. On this unit they just have a story of a "new be's" kid telling a story. I am not impressed. It almost seems they just took the Truck GPS stripped it down, added some toys, and took us for fools that would purchase a GPS just because it is now advertised as a RV GPS. I hope I am wrong, as I like my present Garmin a lot. I want information, not stories.

Either or. The list of gas stations don't say whether they are diesel or not, but the truck stop list helps. Be nice to have a list of diesel stations, even if they are not RV compatible. Guess that's where a POI would come in. This is my first rodeo with a GPS for our RV, so I can be the designated dummy. :o :B

It would be nice, but that would probably be a lot of work to have diesel stations.

Can someone link a good POI download site that list diesel fuel locations that are RV accessible? Guess that was too much to ask for on an RV GPS.:R

...RV Accessible diesel pumps are available at ANY TRUCK STOP:S

I suspect he's asking for those diesel fuel locations that AREN'T truck stops?
