Creating your own map with a Garmin GPS and Mapquest December 16, 2008, 06:46:58 pm Yahoo Message Number: 97953Came across this article while reading the September issue of Popular Science.http://tinyurl.com/6yfbkaIt appears to only work with Garmin but I tried it out today and it works as described. My recent experience with my Nuvi is that it takes me on some routes that I would rather not take. Prior to reading this I would create a route in Google maps and then pick points and create it again in the Nuvi. With this new to me method that will only happen once.Jim C
