I've been checking out getting a GPS, I have wanted one, but I'm useing this ride as an excuse to get one.. I'm having a hard time finding one that will track a new path and save it for a reasonable amount of money.

I have found that going cheap ends up costing more than buying the real deal. I would just get a lowrance. If I had 700 saved I woukd buy one.

True, and that will be the end game for me, but I was hoping to find one that would work for now, then I could stuff it in the glove box later next season when I get the lowrance :D

i use this simple set up, and it has got me back to camp and helped me get back to broke down riders quite a few times...paid $160 for GPS and mount...

View attachment 10047View attachment 10048View attachment 10049View attachment 10050View attachment 10051 I downloaded this app on my I phone unthinkable I paid $4.00 for it and it works really good. I used it for the GPS in the pure 200 race last weekend. When I find a cool jump in Glamis I will pin point it. Records and follows tracks really good. Best $4 I have spent for the dezert. Made a mount for it on the oh shit bar for my co dog to use. Check it out.

Does it require a cell tower connection

Been messing with this for about a hr. it's really cool. Easy to use and is only .99 now! Good find!
 
Also one of our I t guys says he has an old lowrance 7 inch black and white that I could probably borrow for the ride. He said he wasnt sure if he has the antenna. Gotta go find out w when I get a chance.

Even though this is a nice simple setup, I think that I would rather save up to buy a lowrance xtr .

yeah dont get me wrong the Lowrance is awesome...im just sayin this setup more then works for me...its done everything i need it to do, plus i can just pop it out of the holder and use it in other vehicles, including my desert bike, and my wife and I also use it on hikes...
