GPS - RV specific or not?
I am looking at buying a new GPS. I have an older Garmin nuvi760. I am looking at the RV specific GPS units. I have been looking at all of the shortcomings of them and wonder if it is even worth going...

Garmin uses software called "Base Camp" that allows you to create your route on your laptop, make desired modifications, and then download it into the Garmin RV 760LT (and some Nuviis also).
[rant] If you understand and like Base Camp, you're the only one. I've tried to figure out that bloated, unintuitive POS software more than once and can't get it to draw a route from my house to anywhere without resorting to watching at least one of their useless video tutorials. Mapsource was usable, but not Base Camp.
Sorry, that rant wasn't directed at you, but at Garmin who must have lost some employees to Google because now that POS doesn't even have a save option. [/rant]
Yes, there is a learning curve . . . especially if you are used to using Map Source (like we were) for many years. Alas, everything changes . . .
