GPS Review for Garmin, Magellan, and Tomtom

I have at a suction cup mount for my Garmin GPS attached to my windshield for the past two years, and I need to remove it. I have tried pulling the lever as well as the tab but to no avail. I’m thinking I can stick a knife under and pry it off, but I’m pretty sure there will still be rubber stuck to the windshield. Any good ideas or chemicals I can use to remove this thing? Also, what can I use to remove the residue after it’s off?

if not is there a web site with free topografic maps to load in my vista cx GPS

I belief it would be Denso, because they are one of the biggest supplier for automotive navigation system, the only japanese co. in the top 3 global supplier list.
Garmin does not supply to automotive industry (or at east not in the top 10), but they are the market leader in the consumer market, specifically handheld version.
Functional wise the automotive version has more functionality and is much more durable compare to consumer market version but it is stuckk inside your car (0 mobility).
For you question, if you define better is as of in mobility with basic navigation function, I would say YES YES YES
If you definition of better is as of durability, functionality & integration to the other of you car multimedia functionality, the answer is a BIG NO NO

You need a program that can read the data from your etrex and create a gpx file.
Garmin’s Mapsource will work well and will let you edit the track before you create the file.
Easy GPS (www.easygps.com/) will also work and is free.
Edit your track appropriately, add waypoints, etc and save the GPX file.
Go to the GPS visualizer web site (http://www.gpsvisualizer.com/convert_inp… and convert the GPX file to a KML file.
Go to your My Maps on Google Maps and upload the KML file.
You can then edit the colors, waypoint markers, and the routes on your map page.
