 Garmin MapSource Trip and Waypoint ManagerSep 26, 2005
By Dick Jensen
I recently purchased a Garmin Quest2 which comes with all the software installed and no supplemental CD with MapSource, etc. I needed to install maps I obtained from New Zealand. Garmin says it won't install maps, but it installed them very nicely. Further it has proven an excellent trip planning tool allowing me to set up routes and waypoints at home and upload them to the Quest2 before we leave for New Zealand. Much easier than trying to set them up on the Quest2 directly.

It DOES install mapsJan 11, 2006
By Shane
As per the reviewer below, I can confirm, it does indeed install maps. Why does Garmin says it doesn't? Because they don't want you loading your GPS with all the free maps that are now available. How a company can actually tell outright lies to it's customers to protect its own interests is beyond me. And no, it's not an Amazon error, they also say ON THE CD ITSELF that it will not install maps!

Basic, but inexpensiveMar 20, 2007
By David Nierenberg
This software is VERY basic and does not offer a whole lot of capability. I sync it with a Garmin Foretrex 101, which does not have mapping capabilities. My plan was to map out cycling routes on the software and import them into the GPS. However, the trip and waypoint manager only has major roads (Interstates and some US highways) available for navigating. It also only has major bodies of water. It is nice software if you just want to keep track of where you've been and how to get there again, but don't plan on creating routes from scratch (unless, of course, you have predetermined the lat/long coordinates).

 Cannot Upload ROUTES to other than Nuvi 700 or 800 SeriesJun 06, 2010
By R. Bik
"rbik"
Garmin compatibility guide indicates this software is compatible with a wide range of Nuvi Products. The truth is that other than for the Nuvi 700, 800 or 5000 Series, you will be unable to upload anything other than Waypoints. If you want to upload Routes, just buy one of those units and use the free utility within Mapquest. Note: After uploading the Route, you will need to go into Tools, My Data, Import Route from File. You won't find that information in any of the Garmin instructions including the downloadable manual.
