    Rather annoying that us24 between ft Wayne and Toledo has been complete for over a year and still not updated in the rand maps

    Ok so it's been done for a year. Add another year for the state to sign off and update their maps then it has to get passed to rand who verifies the changes and add it to the database and add all the other info associated with that.
    Be patient people it's not a instant upgrade to do this stuff.

    It all depends on the zoom level. The icons have a priority to show or overlay in a sequence when zoomed out.

    Thanks,

    Yesterday I just remembered I paid for a life time subscription for Low Clearance POI's. I had it on Tom Tom in the car but with not really needing it there I kinda let it get ignored. I may have even turned it off. Totally forgot I even had it. It doesn't really pop up that often living out in the suburbs. So yesterday I downloaded the current file and put it on my TND 520. Wouldn't ya just know it I drove around the suburbs all day and never got into the city to see it work. I won't get to try it out today either cause it's raining today in Chicago and we all got canceled. That's how it goes in construction never know when you're getting a day off. I can't wait to see it in action and will report back when I do.

    I'm saving up for the new TND 530 and when I get it I would like to sell my 520 which is only a few months old. What is the proper way to sell it? Reset everything? I bought the extended 2 year warrantee will that pass on? Will the lifetime maps pass on to the new owner? If those options don't pass on and I am forced to sell it real low should I just keep it and use it in the car? What other use is there for it? What do I need to do on the Dock? It is registered to me with my email address. Do I nee to change that info? What happens when the new owner connects to Dock will my name come up cause of the serial number?

    It might be another month or so till I come up with the full amount for the 530. I see them for $299 at http://tinyurl.com/knq5eld
