GPS Funny

I got my GPS out of the van from my trip to Greenville....The trip odometer said 973 miles total and a maximum speed of 370 mph

...It did fly off the dash a few times, but at 370 mph

Actually, that is probably a little slow for the speeds on I-75.....

I see you updated your avatar. Nice to have a better lookin' picture of you.

I think it's impossible for your max speed to be anywhere near the 300+mph you claim it says. I wont believe it until I see it. send the unit to me so I can try and replicate the results, I'll send you mine as a replacement until I can complete the test

After a recent trip to the coast in my jon boat I noticed that the Max. Speed on the old garmin was 212 MPH. I thought to myself "Damn, no wonder I didn't catch anything. I was trolling way to fast." OMC power is awesome !

I think the only way to get a true life test is to have the unit just the way it was on the day the unit malfunctioned.

You want a unit with nothing but a track to Greenville SC and back

I got it

BH, you don't want that, either. Yesterday, while drifting, he asked me to take a look and check if we were drifting along one of his old tracks. I looked at his GPS, and told him I had no idea. It looked like a youngun had scribbled all over the screen.
