Load Caches On A Nuvi 40LM

[+The Yinnies]

I have been using a Nuvi 500 for a few years and want to upgrade to the 40LM. I know about the GSAK Nuvi deal. I would like to just load a PQ to the GPX file. If I use GSAK it does not show the name. I really like the way the 500 shows the name. Can it be done with the 40LM?

Thanks

That unit looks similar to the one I have (in terms of allowing POI's, etc). Nuvi 2450

 

You might want to check out this thread - as I just learned how to put POI's in my Nuvi.

My husband uses GSAK and a Macro and POI Loader. With the macro, he can customize how the name looks like, he has logs in it, hints, D/T, the description, etc. And we have 5700 caches in. GSAK is slick. I will say, we haven't been able to see the 'alerts' pop up yet.
