Last year, there was much discussion regarding a GPS unit.  Some like a Garmin found on Ebay for only $50? I believe.

Does anyone have a link to that which is still for sale, and if not, what is the model of the Garmin?

Aha!!  Having the "Nuvi" unit could be an issue... many of us are now using the "Drive" models.  I, too, had long used a Nuvi 2350 model, but began running into compatibility problems with Garmin's Base Camp mapping software application.  I think that the Nuvi was much more intuitive to use than the Drive series, but I'm getting used to it.

BTW, I have the latest Garmin map database on both the Drive 52 and my laptop.  It's the "CN North America 2022.10" version.

David, as you upload my GPX file to your unit, do you find it working satisfactorily for you on our Drives?

Your GPX files seem OK, Walter.  But, I don't pay close attention to the route directions that the GPS calls out, since I'm running with the group and have no real need to listen closely.  The route that the display shows seems OK.
