In the bullet list in the article above, the third bullet says “3-D terrain shading on compatible units.” Which Garmin GPS units are “terrain shading” compatible? All of the nuvi’s? Only some of the nuvi’s?? If so, which ones? How about the 60CSx? (I couldn’t find an answer to this question on the Garmin website.) I already know that the Oregon and Colorado series are terrain shading compatible. Thanks.

There is a road, but as far as I know it is like the 100k topo in that it is drawn on the map but it is not able to be navigated on as part of a route. (At least not without doing it manually.)

You can load them on the 780– They will just display on the map, no other typical off-road style navigation functions are offered.

Hi,

I have a Nuvi-780. I’m wondering about TOPO maps use Garmin recommended that I buy, another GPS – I cant use a tall skinny GPS in my Toyota 4×4 Truck (doesn’t fit)…
Any one load a TOPO Map on a 780?
