Tanks guys and gals. Good info.
Yeah having a hard copy for backup is a must and smart. Hey, pilots always carry hardcopies...it's required less it's rec flying.
Rolin - Good info. Had Garmin 296..Have early 1990s Magellan GPS. Still works just fine. Got it for fishin in Cook Inlet. Water proof but back then it was $700 but it's S.G. was less the H20 so it floated and water proof.
Is the 1690 the biggest screen..I noted the early Tiffin's had a very large screen in the dash. I like that. Large screen with Bluetooth abilities and routing and GPS wld be great.
I'll chk Garmin reviews and featiures of all models.
Thanks for all the good and warm.
Oh..wonder why GS hasn't got this all in bundle for it's members.
Drive safe!.
