My first was a Samsung tab a and the gps was terrible in the trees where the iPad mini is excellent. The tab a is a cheap model and that probably is the reason. Just been an apple guy. Android works good too.
Since you do that, you should consider doing this ride. Dont worry we dont bite. If your intersted read through this and PM me for directions. Some good food is to be had as well. Would

Did you have a Tab A7 or an A7 Lite?
Sorry I don’t rember. It was about $120. Entry level to try everything out. Cheap cheap. Tab A is all I remember. Learned on it.
What did that all set you back if u dont mind sharing? Dont worry Im not gonna give you $hit. Just curious and its good info for others that may want to buy the same thing
You might want to think about doing something like I did to keep the tablet powered all the time while riding:

I may do that in the future. Looking at your pics and I can't tell where you have the Ram mount mounted? Does the clamp go around the Honda stock ROPS clamp or is that a piece of rubber?You might want to think about doing something like I did to keep the tablet powered all the time while riding:

Youngest offspring got me a farm jack this past Father's Day. Ordered the base plate for it. Now I have to figure out where to mount it, which mounts to use, and if this JAH can handle strapping another 34.4# on it ... 🤔
All together was roughly $500. It's the A7 not the A7 lite.
The mount comes with a hose clamp and a piece of rubber that the hose clamp slips through. It's around the ROPS.
Sorry I didn't get back with everyone, I'm camping at Summerville Lake in WV. Beautiful around here. As for the Chromebook, they dont work with Garmin gps that's why I was asking about ordering the maps on a SD card and being able to use it without a windows computer. Thanks for the info, sounds like it could work.
Thanks. I haven't been anywhere to ride any trails other than around where I live but I plan to do a little when the time comes. I can't justify spending much. I have a GPS that will work and WV maps looked like the way to go for me. I thought it should work with just the SD card because I have Mexico maps years ago on a SD card and I had to do is stick in the GPS, turn on the GPS and maps were there. Thanks.
Nice.
Yeah mine suck too. My experience when your looking at the liftime map program I/U have a Hard time seeing it there POI. I like the Overlander cuz of the Garmin feature. For example, with VV i stalled, it turns its program into Garmin. So when Im at RRB and I save way points like the flame for example. I hit go amd it shows me the different routes to it and guides me like In my truck as well as cookie crumbs If I like plus many other features not just for trail riding with free lifetime updates. When I ride with my buddy @Koda at RRB with his lifetime maps and hes leading to someplace new, we have to stop alot to look to see where we are at alot more often than with my Garmin. @tr005 switched to the overlander for that reason as well.
