Nothing against a great company like Garmin, but in my personal
opinion, the 196 is not worth a pinch of Coon @#%@ as a Multi-Purpose
unit and is going right back where it came from.

I understand that Garmin has downloadable and installable detail maps for
the 196. I don't know if they're any better than the built in maps, but I
suspect they'd have to be. You might want to give them a try first.
