Good for you. That really is a nice unit. I have one of those, and the patch antenna is a bit less sensitive than the 60csx. But, other than that, it has all the features you will need. Very nice. Get a good micro sd chip, and load in the topos for arizona. It should have come with the base Garmin mapping software. Then just add maps as needed. http://www.gpsfiledepot.com/ Matthew Shapiro wrote: > Hey all, > > Thanks again for all the responses.
