I'm a field tester for Garmin and I've been using a test prototype of the DC40 for the last 6 weeks in testing. The DC40 should hit the market sometime this summer. It has many new features that I believe will improve your outdoor experiance. New features are,

Unlimited range in any terrain.

An integrated camera with zoom features that will allow you to see treed game before walking into a tree. The camera also allows you a view from the dogs perspective.

A scent indicator that allows you to know ahead of time what your dog is running. The screen will flash '' Opossum'' ''deer'' etc etc.

The new DC 40 will also have a built in shocking system that will allow correction of unwanted behavior. For example , when your screen flashes '' Opossum'' , you simply apply the tone button and if that doesn't solve the problem , you can then apply a shock at various levels of stimulation until the negative behavior ends.

I hope this answers some of the questions you have about the new DC 40. Thank you.

 ;D

Almost dont sound real ???

If it is real....its gonna be sweet.

 ;D rolleyes ;D

now thats funny

If it is real gonna. Be higher the a  cats a$$ in a hammock

i think i am goin to hold out for the dc 50 it probally goin to have a machine gun built in it ;D

DC-50 will have also have a built in bark. So the issue of having silent and open dogs will be laid to rest. With a few snips, re move the vocal cords of your dog and place DC-50 on its neck. At the touch of a button you can decide to run open,semi-open or silent dogs. The DC-50 will also give your dog a "pep talk" to hunt further into the woods. It will be made of Kevlar  so it will last any where from 12748- 238904 years.

haha if that were true it would be sweet ;D ;D

that's F'in great!!!

freakin beautiful

Cantexduck,

I think you should review your facts.  I'm fairly certain it is vipercloth and not kevlar.

No.

Zeus' vest is a custom-tailored original like no other.  It was fabricated by a one-fingered seamstress I located in southern Paraguay.  When I had his vest manufactured, I spent a week where I traveled to Asia in search of lower back hair from the elusive Pig-Tailed Macaque; the strongest of all known fibers.  I could tell you more and go into further detail, but you simply wouldn't understand.

hahahaha.
 For some reason I read that in the voice from one of Rex's cartoons......

Can you imagine how many probs they would have if they tried all of that.

pretty sweet concept...i think it is a bit much to put all in one collar but if they can pull it off...sweet...i would try one..keep my dc30s and send in the 40s when they act stupid

A GARMIN having problems? Who has ever heard of such a thing?  rolleyes

I read on another forum that the DC40 collars will have an optional flux capacitor unit available. Supposedly they will be lighter than DC30s due to an extensive use of unobtanium.

well this sounds like it might just be a little slice of heaven.....but if its got a shock system built in i might have just wasted some money :-\

I hope the range gets much better the dc30 stinks for my dogs

I wonder how accurate the scenting system will be,  I would hate to have the Garmin telling me trash and shocking the dogs all the while thier wondering why they're bieng shocked off pigs, also me and my buds hunt at night so the camera will be just another drain on the battery

Well if it does come out we know that the guys that are running dc40 collars won't have trashy dogs.

will it require a new system or will it work off of the garmin 220

It is all a joke.  Please don't go to selling your children to buy this super collar.  They are simply having some fun.

There's already a non refundable deposit on on my firstborn son, thanks a lot guys!!!! Just kidding of course wish it were real some of those features sound quite nice

thats good fun right there I was hoping it would have a feature to stop running as well!

that's why ya'll dont have any friends.  seriously, though, since i asked some guys on another board, who are garmin vendors, say that a dc40 will be available july 1.  they didnt say anything about cameras or scent detectors, jacka$$e$. lol

if it will tote it out, skin it and clean it im sold

I just about fell out of my chair!.... ;D  HA,HA,..    Between this one and Bryants yall aint worth killin....... ;D Ha..

 ;D Just got finished reading this post, you guys are great, but there is coffee all over my computer, comin out my nose so I gotta clean it up before I get it trouble, she'll never see what was so funny ;)

Nothing wrong with a chuckle every now and then  ;D  No charge for the entertainment.  That one's on us.


Kevin,

They would be just like these "smartphone" cell phones these days.  Heck, you can take one of these phones and pretty much initiate nuclear war if you so desire, but damn if you can call somebody across town without loosing service or dropping the call.  Garmin needs to spend time perfecting the actual tracking ability before diving off into other features.

Man I wouldnt doubt it if some of you guys was burning Garmins phones up trying to get on a waiting list. Yall should have kept that going. I bet some of yall was more dissapointed than when you found out Sants Claus wasnt real! ;D

Now I know you're full of it.  Santa brought me a stocking filled to the brim this year.  You just don't act nice, that is why you don't get anything good. 

I thought there may still be some believers but I thought oh what the hell most of them on here are grown. :laugh:

That's the truth. I am on my 4th "Smart Phone" in less than 6 months! It either drops calls, or I sound like Charlie Brown talking into it...

Being naughty or nice has nothing to do with age.  I'm in my 30's, and I try to always be good. :angel:  You never know who's watching. popo

its friday 1:00 p.m. and im at work bored off my ass..........just wanted to let ya'll know that you just made my day......that is hilarious absolutely hilarious!

With all that stuff it sounds more like playing a video game than HUNTING. Why not sit in a dark room and stare at this screen for days on end living on pepsi and fruit roll ups. Hog hunters will be skinny, pale and have taken offense to sunlight

well, i already got most of that knocked out of the way. Im skinny, pale and could live off pepsi and Flamin Hot Cheetos!  :D

Hmmm.... pale and skinny. I may have to take up that sport then, cuz right now I'm pale and fat.
