I will be in charge of coordinating drives for my local Lotus club this year, and I am looking for a solution that will make this easy and safe. In the past, I've done the Google maps thing with printouts, and find myself referencing the directions when I need to have both hands on the wheel.
What I would like to do is buy a portable GPS to aid in the actual navigation. Trouble is, I also need the ability to print the routes for the other participants, and I would like to continue to do the planning on my PC which will likely be much better.
I've done a little bit of research on the Garmin Nuvi 700 line of devices, and I've even read that you can use Mapquest to develop routes and "send" them to the device. Does anyone have experience with this? Is there a better, more efficient combination of software and device that would meet all of my needs?
TIA!
