I really like all the details in your video, super well done. I am trying to follow the directions on transferring waypoints with the basecamp icons. I don't have success. between 01:57 and 03:16

Perfect video. Well done. In Germany we don’t drink a Erdinger beer out of the bottle, we drink out of a glasses always. 😉🍻

Very helpful and your directions were clear. Thanks for your help.

Hi Thomas thanks for sharing the video. Great tip on waypoints. Can you also see the waypoints' legends (restaurant, hotel, museum, fishing spot, camping site, ...) on XT's screen?

Hey Thomas,
nice lil insight video you did there.
I knew you will follow my recommendation to go for the XT, it's brilliant!
One tip for you, I think you will like this feature as much as I do ;)
No matter which route, track, rolling map or what ever you ride, when the XT is running it is recording the track in the background.
BUT they are saved in a kind of temporary folder, you kann find them in the tracks app (show all or something like that).
So if you think "Wow that's been some nice new trails I've done accidentally" just go to this folder and save the track to keep it.
Easy and no need to set up the "tracking" app, except you want to see the extra details while riding.

We never talked about the features since we didn't know they exist. Great job and thanks. I will be going to Norway next summer and now I know how to enter the names using the special alphabet.

[dennismacwilliams]

It looks like you have good off road riding, I hope one day
I will be riding over there. From the USA

Looks like GPS have come a long way since I bought a Tom Tom back in 2007! Interesting vid on the Garmin's features. Didn't realise they can do that much now. Thanks!

[ericswild]

Thanks for sharing, i learned something new.

[theonlyredspecial]

Thanks from Ireland. Very helpful. Appreciate you taking the time to share this

[matchlessajsbsa]

Good review, thank you. I'm trying to choose between ZumoXT and TomTom550 for road use only. Cheers, John

[adventuremotorcyclediaries]

Very well explained, I learned a lot about my new XT. I agree, it is the best out there at this time. I never knew how the aftermarket topo maps will work with the standard topo maps that come with the unit and which topo map overrides which, so now I will follow your method and just turn the standard delivered topo off or on based on where I am. Also the routing tip that you brought up is definitely a plus, thanks.

What a great review think @garmin should have you on their Ambassador list . I have been running the old 345lm!! Time for an upgrade. Some of the annoying things are addressed on the XT

Nice video! Thanks for making it and sharing some handy features. Ride safe!
