I have a 296, and I used it a couple times on the dashboard of my car. I thought the map base had a very poor grasp of secondary roads (on my way to the airport, I was driving cross-country most of the time as far as the Garmin was concerned). And it had some odd names. NH Route 108, for example, is identified as New Hampshire College Turnpike. I have lived here for more than fifty years and never heard it referred to as that. (And New Hampshire College became the University of New Hampshire in 1928.) -- all the best, Dan Ford email (put Cubdriver in subject line) Warbird's Forum: www.warbirdforum.com Piper Cub Forum: www.pipercubforum.com the blog: www.danford.net
