Posted by hfa8592 Planning routes in advance I have a Nuvi 855. Is it possible to plan a route for a long road trip on my computer in advance of the trip, then import it to my Nuvi? Thanks, hfa8592 Garmin Nuvi 855 Garmin Nuvi 260W Garmin StreetPilot C330 |

The answer is yes, but you need a program called MapSource. Make your own routes to cover areas/towns YOU wish to go through, and then load onto GPS prior to trip. |

Posted by william.beck planing Mapsource can be difficult to obtain. My copy came with a map update Some people have purchased it see forum http://poidirectory.com/forum/topic/2688.html I am changing my computer and require a new copy of mapsource and they directed me to Base map. Have had a quick look at base camp but think I prefer Mapsource. |
