Chiung - you always come up with unique posts and pics. You da' man!

BTW, I'm still working on schedule stuff that I promised you forever ago. I've been absolutely slammed at work but in a very good way, thus the many mods to my S! hehehe Anyway, I have down to get that done this week and get back to you.

Also, I might be interested in getting a portable GPS for the S but that I can use in the Camry, fishing, etc. as well. I didn't want to get too crazy with it but frankly, I have such a poor sense of direction I could really use one of these getting to and from appointments. Business write off!!!!

I've got a Magellan SporTrak Map that I really like. They sell a suction cupped holder for it (sticks to your windshield), so it's easy for me to switch it between my cars. SAM's had a package deal on them a while back -- included the software, carry case, and data cable for it. I used on the FCS2K drive and it was fun to go back and see what our route was.

Having a GPS is really nice on a long trip.

PM if you want more details.

I've used the Garmin units - The 2 portable ones they have that I've used are the GPS V and the Street Pilot.

They also have some handheld types like the Etrex. IIRC, Rick had his Street Pilot screen built into the visor of his S!

Yeah - let's move on a plan - looking like October? The roads await!

Thx Chiung. I'll check that out asap and I will get to work on the road run. Sandy's calling on a day long sitter option tomorrow. Those are hard to find. I'll get with you asap.
