A:AnswerThis model can hold up to 100 trips at a time with each trip limited to 30 waypoints/stops. If the number of waypoints you want on your route exceeds that device's limitation, it is recommended that you create a separate route or trip for each leg. An Optimize Order feature is also included to manually have the device calculate the optimum order in which to travel to all the entered points.

A:AnswerThey sell two different bases - one that is a bit like a bean bag and the other is more just a heavy flexible base that is designed to conform to the shape of the dash. Each have a base designed with a sticky rubber that keeps it in place - it does not leave any residue, nor is it permanent. I have both and prefer the one with the heavier flexible base. But I used the bean bag for many trips before I discovered the other one. Both work well.
A:AnswerNo, it uses a suction cup attachment to the windshield which doesn't hold it well in winter. The previous owner of the mini-van had an older model Garmin and attached that stand to a piece of wood and put in the ashtray of the van. When the cord is attached, it serves like a stand on the desk during updates.

A:AnswerNo, this model is designed for passenger vehicles and doesn’t include any truck specific routing. The Garmin dēzl™ series includes detailed maps for North America that include truck-related restrictions – like bridge heights, sharp curves, weight limits and more – and related information for most major roads and highways.
