Best gps unit

[nzeb]

What is the best gps to use for Wisconsin trails. I was thinking on something with a 5" screen and mount to the dash. Looking for input.

Don't know how old you are and how good your eyes still work but 5" is pretty small. I had a Garmin Montana to start with but got to the point I couldn't see sh**. Now have a tablet with gps and LifeTime TrailMaps.

I have an iPad with the GAIA GPS app. It's able to save all my tracks, unlike a GPS that quickly fills up, needs to be uploaded to my computer and then they're no longer available on the GPS - it's impossible to see where I rode a year ago. I'm paying $29 a year but it has free access too, I'm not sure if I have to pay for track storage, I figured that part out after I signed up. If track storage is free, what matters to me, then I'm out $29 a year because that's the only feature I care about.

Avenza and OnX are two similar apps.

Screen shots from my iPad, all these tracks are still there for easy viewing -

1500 miles of smiles over 3 weeks -


700 miles over 8 days not counting trailer mileage -


Hold my beer rides -


The next two show the importance of long term track storage. I have a lot to ride here and need to know where I haven't ridden. Click on the pic to enlarge and see the topo details.

I have used a 7” Garmin Drive 65 with VV Maps. The screen was too small, so I now use a 10” Samsung Tab A with VV Maps running on the OruxMap app. The tablet is in a Ram mount attached overhead to the ROPS cage.

I have never even owned an iPhone because I can't see the screen but my grandson, who is an avid off-roader, has software in his iPhone that shows all the many trails in WV.

It's probably the same program that CID above mentioned. It's much better than any Garmin GPS I've ever seen.

GPS

I know there are several threads regarding GPS hardware/software, but I either can't find what I need or I'm too stupid to realize that I did and I'm not tech savvy enough to realize it. Everyone talks about how plentiful the maps are. I really don't have much use for maps, unless I make them...

Considering buying a new Garmin. What’s a good recommendation for me to take a look at?
