Thanks for the help guys.
The tablet sounds like a great idea, but don't tablets require cel towers for service? Are tablets able to lock on the satellites like a gps?

GPSr Units / Need a GPS for ATV trail maps.
March 09, 2014, 11:39:58 AM
OK, I have never owned a GPS yet. I need a GPS unit that its primary purpose is ATV/UTV trail maps.
I like touchscreen units and bright clear screens.

Since I have never owned one, I do not know how nice the Garmin loaded topo maps are. Do the Garmin loaded maps show ATV trails? I really like the maps with the color coded trails for the area and difficulty level. If the Garmin maps show this (which I an not sure of), Ill get one with the pre-loaded topo maps.

Price is not my primary concern (I'm not loaded with money, but will pay for what I like, especially since I believe this will last for a long time, so it should be worth a little bit of investment).

Loading maps?! This is what I'm most concerned with. I will need a unit that is not so difficult to load maps on. Simplicity is very important to me. I want to be able to use the thing and be able to load new maps. I really like the idea of using the removable micro sd cards.

Headed to Wind rock TN in two weeks!! Have to be ready by the 24th!!

Maybe I need some sort of newb tutorial.

All help appreciated.
