Would you buy the Rand 720 or upgrade to the newer 730?

    Yeah, it will often do that on CA99 and i35 in Texas -- show you as 200' to the right of the interstate and tries to route you back on...

    Sounds like you lost a GPS signal. You can tell under Preferences/General/GPS data - DOP should be less than 2. If 60 or 100 you have lost the signals.

    Thanks,
    Mark

    What's your point?
    Not necessary to quote me there.

    I'm not familiar with that section of 95.
    But the poster also asked anyone else ever had that happen.


    So I mentioned a place where it happens and the possible reason for it.

    Updates to the map? NO they do not, I have lifetime maps and my mapbase is over a year old (per the unit) and I just did an update last weekend.
