I went with a Zumo from Garmin last year after using a Garmin V for the last 6 yrs.
The Zumo has a built in MP3 player which is nice as I eliminated my other one. It also has an XD card slot for picture viewer.
I loaded the Quebec maps on it last year and it worked flawlessly in ALL weather!!
The Zumo dosn't recall/store tracks as nice as some of the other units but it has tons of goodies and a great large touch screen. Works great with gloves on. It is designed specifically for motorcycles but I have found it just as good for a sled.
They are pricey though. You can even get a "550" model with satellite radio and bluetooth options. Expect to pay 500.00+ for that one.
Here is a pic of mine on my machine last year.
How did the zumo work with low temps? (below zero) I am considering this one myself. I now use a 60csx which works great, its just that the screen is a little small.

Hands down Amosphere. Great steak!!! Hot tub, massage and beutifull rooms.
Don't forget to ask the owner the story about the water. But ask him during your meal.
It is the best water in the world!! From the Esker!!
Thanks for the advice. Cant wait to try the water??

Dean, Thanks for your reply I did consider Mikes. The only problem was we are headed to Balbuzard the next day so I was hoping to be a little farther east. Thanks for your reply. Tim

Does anyone know the difference between staying on 396 to LaSarre or cutting off at 109 south to Amos. Which Trail is the better choice? (Gas, speed, scenery,etc.etc.)
