Title: new garmin idea Post by: tnhillbilly on September 22, 2010, 02:11:28 am I was just thinkin the other day while i was drivin and tryin to look at my garmin at the same time, "hard to do" about how it would be nice to have one that you could mount in your vehicle like a tom tom, to your dash or windshield. or would that just be too complicated?
What yall think? Title: Re: new garmin idea Post by: rdjustham on September 22, 2010, 06:31:38 am sounds like a great idea, dont they already make somthing to mount it with though?
Title: Re: new garmin idea Post by: tnhillbilly on September 22, 2010, 07:17:03 am I think so, I seen that other post, but didnt want to hijack it, so i started a different thread.
But still it is hard to see that little screen, and just thought it might make things a little simpler, but I aint never been accused of bein too bright. lol Title: Re: new garmin idea Post by: BarrNinja on September 22, 2010, 10:24:02 am It is a good idea and the make an auto mount for it. I believe its the same one that fits their Rhino series GPS.
I cant figure out how to mount it between my mules ears but I have decided to get one for the Ranger. Title: Re: new garmin idea Post by: BigAinaBuilt on September 22, 2010, 06:24:08 pm http://www.gpscity.com/gps-mount/garmin/astro-220

Title: Re: new garmin idea Post by: Greg W on September 22, 2010, 10:05:44 pm Get a extra clip. like the belt clip that comes with it. A cell phone clip will work glue the clip on ur dash. Like by ur radio or where u can see it. That's how we have ours in the trucks. Just a thought
Title: Re: new garmin idea Post by: scdogman on September 25, 2010, 07:33:02 am I was thinking the same thing. My idea was a screen or monitor that the garmin could plug into.
I got an older guy that had a stroke that can't hit the woods anymore. It would be nice to drive him close enough so he could hear the bay or race and see the screen at the same time.

That would work even better, a bigger screen that plugs into the handheld, I was wonderin how it would be to load all the collars into two different systems, I think that its great that you are helpin a fellow hunter stay in the woods, my hats off to you. |
