    TCO: why we deciced not to get a Sportsmobile (yet :-)

    You might want to check with your accountant, but with a sportsmobile or any vehicle that has living quarters, you might be able to write off your loan interest as a second home. I have friends that do this with their accountants blessing. Could help save some money in the end.

    anybody go from a garmin 276/478 to a montana 650 ??

The batteries on mine last for quite awhile - the only thing to watch out for is to make sure you store them...

    Garmin Montana

    I don't have any City Select CDs yet for the Montana, but you can turn the 3D on and off for the topo maps, so I am sure you can do the same for City Select. I don't use the 3D at all. I am still liking the Montana, Garmin also had an update recently that added features. You can read about...
