WHY DO WE LIKE THE MONTANA SO MUCH?

In addition to the features common in all of Garmin's latest handheld units, like Wireless Transfer of Waypoints/Routes/Tracks etc to other compatible units, the Montana has these features as well:
  • The Montana has Profiles. This means you can make your gps into many different units based entirely on settings you can switch in a second through a Shortcut.
  • The Montana has a proper powered, lockable mount which is very inexpensive, at around $33. See the "Rugged Mount".
  • The Montana has the ability to be used in Landscape or Portrait mode.
  • The Montana has a rechargeable lithium-ion battery, and can use 3 AAs instead, if the rechargeable one dies.


Please do not reply in this thread... If you want to discuss the Montana, go to the humungous thread called Laying Down Tracks/New Garmin Montana.
