Does the preloaded Garmin Cycle Map compare to the City Navigator NT? Meaning does it have detailed street maps.

The Cycle map is detailed enough for navigation for the riding that I do. It also contains a POI database, but I have not investigated that too extensively. What type of detail are you looking for?
185766
Yes it uses Openstreet Map that are detailed. IMO they look better than the maps on my old edge 605.
185767
Yes. Very detailed. And does turn by turn with audible prompts. Another neat feature is round trip generation, tell it how far you want to ride and it comes up with 2 or 3 possible routes for you
185768
Yes, Ibelieve so but thus far I have only used out in the country. has been very accurate their

It does BUT the size of the screen is so much smaller that only a few streets will show up on the screen for you to view. You can zoom out, but when you do you will lose a lot of the detail you are probably hoping to see.

Kinda, but it's not updated very frequently. So, the restaurants will be what was there when the map was made. The map says it was updated last year, but the restaurants are the ones from 5 years ago.It's good enough to get around.

It does come with maps; however, they may or may not be the latest. Garmin does allow you to update the maps once for free, but it does require a standard USB to mini-USB cable which is not provided. For more information visit the Garmin website.

The Oregon GPS is a nice unit, fairly light, easy to read, user friendly and easy to navagate buttons. If your looking for a unit to use more detailed maps this unit is not for you. Its difficult to download maps from Terrain Navagator Pro and will only hold so many. If you are just going to use the Garmin 24 maps on the unit, which will cost you more money to purchase then I recommend this unit. If you like to fiddle alot with the unit be warned it uses up a lot of battery power so carry extras with you. I purchased the Oregon 550 and altho I do like it I wish I had spent the extra money and bought the 550T series or the Montana 650T. Hope this helps.

Sorry for the delay...I was not physically by the GPS to check it. I tried several destination in Canada and it appears to build detailed routes to those destinations. So, I guess the answer to your question is "yes". It does have canadian maps in it!

J.RIPORTELLAI WENT TO BEST BUY TO GET SOME IMPUT ON THE GPS AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE NUVI 350 AND THE BASIC GPS IS THE NUVI IS GOOD IF YOU TRAVEL TO DIFFERENT COUNTRIES, IT DOES NOT SAY THE STREET NAMES, AND IF YOU WANT JUST A BASIC ONE THIS ONE IS NOT IT, THIS ONE HAS ALL THE BELLS AND WHISLES WHICH YOU WILL MOST LIKLY NOT USE AND THE PRICE IS FAR MORE. THE GARMIN C550 IS A VERY GOOD ONE AND IT TELLS YOU THE STREETS.

I don't know, but regardless, it is far inferior to Google maps. Streets and trips is a complete waste of money.

No. But my friend has the one that does, and I notice it pronounces street names poorly, so I don't think its a huge advantage. The 330 will display the street name for the next turn, on at top of screen, thats good enough for me.

Most GPS's you can select a route via you put in the city's you want to go through and that is the way the GPS takes you. Those are call waypoints along the route. But as I said before, I would not buy this GPS.

I typed in 10 Main St. Anchorage, Alaska and it gave a message that "the route is too long. Navigation instructions are a added as you approach the destination." I would guess the maps would be there. It is a great GPS.

Thanks for the input, I actually kept the original Garmin. I realized it couldn't recognize my position re: the street because my house is 1000 ft off the road. I actually like it a lot. It does quirky things like take me to the highway one way and bring me home another even though the streets are not one way. At this point, I'm glad I got it.

Yes it does and very well. I'm a Ontrac driver that uses streets n trips daily for my route and this GPS unit is 100% better then the Microsoft GPS.

No, it does not display street names, only the main ones and even then, very few. It does display the street you are on and the directions are very clear and repetitive, though. Oddly, I live in South Florida and it does show the name of every single canal and lake. I have no idea why the software developers thought those would be of high interest to the user and not the detailed names of the streets. It does come preloaded with mapping software, and you get one free upgrade with Garmin within 30 days of registering the device with them. Hope this helps, but you've probably already made your purchasing decision by now.

Hi Kirk, I have this 60CX, the version without the electronic compass (which can be a battery drain). The past two years, I've used it primarily in the car. I am pleased with it's performance in the car (and some on a motorcycle) and it gets me to unfamiliar places accurately here in the Houston area. The unit is surprisingly faster in satelite acquistion and route calculation than others that I have used. It won't talk to you. It beeps and flashes information on upcoming turns. That being said, I had to purchase the city navigator software from Garmin and 2 gb micro sd to do the detailed maps that the pre-loaded map that comes with the unit just won't do. The most recent city navigator retails for around $140. 2 gb cards are inexpensive. I've not had to use it for hiking or sailing. From what I've read, others have found it great for those applications. I have used it to go running and my experience is that you must hold it steady to calculate your pace accurately. This thing is extremely portable. It can fit in your pocket in a pinch. I believe this and the 76 series are the best all around gps-s. Good Luck!

I have used the Garmin Maps on my Garmin Cycle GPS Edge 800 and it worked. The same maps works on my Garmin Car Navigator through SD Card Maps loading

This has maps of my area, so I would say yes. Also, u can download maps to your computer and upload them to the Garmin.
