gps that will let me make route points

Rangerscott · 04-06-2010, 03:22 PM

Is there a gps out there that doesn't cost a left testicle and I can make/connect my own route points like you can in google maps?

I know there are ones that u can upload routes, but I don't know many people that pull off the road, bust out a laptop and make a route. I want to do it on the fly.

Ex: Point A to B goes through a set of towns but later I decide I want to go through a different town on the way, but am still keep destination B.

not anything with a decent price made for cars or bikes, you need something like ebbs suggested or spend out the ass for it

however thats not what he is looking for, he wants to do waypoints on the fly. It doesn't say it can do that, just import them.
