+dh2000dh Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 (edited) GPS City Black Friday sale.....free shipping. Bam, which would you buy, and why? dh2000dh Never mind, I just figured that if you just bought 3 of the 62s, then you like that one best! Edited November 29, 2013 by dh2000dh Quote Link to comment

Bam, which would you buy, and why? dh2000dh Never mind, I just figured that if you just bought 3 of the 62s, then you like that one best! Yeah , I have a 450 but like the 62S better. For me the 450 requires multiple repeat touches ( sometimes just with my fingernail ), panning the map is a real pain, darker screen. The 62 has a brighter screen and the ribbon menu can be configured so just a couple of buttons does everything you need. Also has the nice big quad antenna for under canopy. I just realized yesterday.....my wife always used the 450 and really, its a " two hands unit "......I use mine while driving and the buttons make it a breeze for one hand use. Quote Link to comment
+CEH2000 Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 Okay, another question - if I were to get the 62s With City Navigator and Topo US 100k, can you combine (layer?) the two maps to put on the unit? Quote Link to comment

I bought 2 similar to this on Ebay http://www.ebay.com/itm/North-America-2014-20-City-Navigator-Gar-NT-/251373773060?pt=GPS_Maps_Software&hash=item3a870b6104 Both work fine and cost about $65-$70 retail. Several maps come on the Garmin and when you put the CN card above in to the unit its listed along with the others as well.....the 62 will show all the maps as being ENABLED ( I've never disabled any )....I don't have Topo so I don't know if it overlays....I would assume it would.

+PFF Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 GPS City Black Friday sale.....free shipping. REI is running a sale with two versions of the 62 for $199. Looks like a good deal if you're shopping for a new unit. Quote Link to comment
+dh2000dh Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 got one from Cabelas this morning, $199 Thankyou, Bam DAvid Quote Link to comment
+gpsblake Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 If I would buy one of these, does OpenStreetMap allow for routing on these units? Quote Link to comment
+dh2000dh Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 i got the 62s, and loaded OSM maps on it. The routes work around Baton Rouge, but didn't work in New Orleans yesterday - I am sure it was something I screwed up. David Quote Link to comment
