Default Garmin 496 PIREP -- Navigating while Driving

It is definitely superior to the 396. I use mine in the car any time I'm
going somewhere I've never been.


As far as I know, the automotive features are identical between the 396
and 496, so I'm not sure what is "superior" about the 496 in this
regard, except that the 496 has the map data preloaded.


Oops. You're right, of course, Jonathan. That is the difference: I never
loaded the map data in my 396.
