Thanks for the responses Cacheholic and yogazoo. That is what I needed to hear if thats the case. Like mentioned my biggest worry then is it will not put me on the trail maps I download, when I am driving my dirtbike, potentially alone, in the middle of a state forest, where some roads are illegal to be on with my bike .(I want to stay off the illegal ones if I can help it).
Should I be worried about that then?
Here is a screenshot of my GPS outside a few miuntes ago:

Obviously again if that's the nature then I know I didn't get a faulty one and will move on. It sounds like that is what is being said, but I wanted to post a picture just in case.
Its also possible that as mentioned when on a downloaded trail i can use lock on roads to lock me on the trail.
Thanks for any confirmation. Sometimes we get used to our smartphones and car GPS systems that probably "lock on roads" by default so we don't realize how accurate or not the GPS and or maps are in reality.
*Edit - Thank you Walts Hunting yours came in while I wrote the above response, I didn't read it until now.
So that sounds like the deal, when trail riding I will lock and when caching, etc I will unlock.
