    I use my Google Maps GPS daily as well too with hardly any data usage.. I have used Garmin since the i3 and that was a long time ago! Maps is at least as good..

    Reducing lighting will help reduce power use but always best to plug in for sure!

    Garmin for a regular GPS or if you want to use the phone check out the maps.me app it can be used just like a GPS and without data if you download the maps on wifi it will use gps satellites even when in airplane mode.

    Well guys, a member here has stepped up and made a most generous offer to send a slightly older GPS unit to us.
    I'm always amazed at the generosity of folks here.

    Just before I got to page (3) I thought, "Well heck I'll just send our Garmin up there for Mrs. Papadave to use".....
    Then she might end up in Wytheville :rofl: :lol::faint: But we'd send her home some of Bec's Peanut Butter Pies for ya Dave.....:drool:

    Too late to let the "anonymous to us" member know you have another offer on the table?:rofl: :lol::rofl: :lol::rofl: :lol:

    Just kidding- that gesture reaffirms the character of folks here! :handshake::thumbs::yes:

    Ahh, the EVW self-homing GPS.
    I'm sure they're awesome, but I gained several pounds over Christmas that I now need to nuke away somehow. PB pies wouldn't be helpful. :rofl: :lol:
    Xactly.

    The process of eating PB pies in and of itself makes it a non belly expander....the mmmmmm's and ahhhhh's, combined with belly rubbing and smiling burns more calories than contained in said pies.....
    Believe that!:whistle:
    :rofl: :lol:
