I'll do that once finalized with gas stations, food, camping POIs.

I have a cig port with a voltage/temp device plugged in. I ended up putting some rubber from a bicycle tube around it so it was nice and sticky in there. It doesn't pop out anymore.

I watched a video on a repair of a Nuvi's USB port. the socket is surface mount soldered to the motherboard and wiggling will break it. I'm thinking of opening the case on mine and putting some epoxy around it to help protect it.

Sorry RJ, but I'm calling your ride to Canada as close but not close enough!!! We are coming down through the area you posted with the glacier pic. It's going to be awesome!
