Garmin Roads and Recreation 2000 U.S.A. CD-ROM (Windows) Review

I purchased this product to plot and provide turn-by-turn directions for trips and to load maps to my Legend. This product does not provide turn-by-turn directions. When I called the Garmin software help line, the suggestion was made to purchase the Metroguide USA product since it had all functions of R&R and more. Seems the R&R was the first software product offered and is for low memory units (1mb). This is an obsolete product and since I opened the package--it cannot be returned. If you have a newer GPS unit with more than a mb of memory, don't bother with this software. It is not designed for your unit. Don't look for this info in the manual--it's not there. Call the help line and you may find your money was wasted.

Garmin's United States Roads & Recreation CD-ROM includes trip and waypoint management functions that allow you to transfer waypoints, routes, and tracks between your PC and nearly all Garmin GPS units. Roads & Recreation contains highways, interstates, and local, county, and residential roads for all 50 states. It displays U.S. interstate-exit information such as service stations, gas stations, restaurants, hotels, campsites, hospitals, banks, and more. It also shows shoreline detail for lakes, reservoirs, and rivers, with icons indicating boat ramps, dams, marinas, public facilities, mile markers, and first aid stations. In addition, it points out U.S. nautical navigational aids such as day beacons, radio beacons, RACONs, fog signals, lights, and buoys. With a map-download-compatible Garmin GPS, you can simply transfer maps from this CD-ROM to your GPS unit via a PC.
Note on compatibility: The trip and waypoint management functions of this product work with nearly all Garmin GPS units, excluding the GPS 100 family and panel-mount aviation units. The map-download feature of this product is recommended for use with the GPS III Plus, NavTalk, GPS 12MAP, and GPSMAP 162 and 168. A blank Garmin data cartridge is needed to upload map data to these compatible units.
