| GARMIN MAP76CSX ON SKI DOO TOURING 380 |
|
|
Mounted the new Garmin Map 76csx on the sled using the RAM mount with the 1" plate base. No joke, it took less than 1/2 an hour to mount it and that was taking my time! Since I don't have a tach, the mounting location was easy to choose, and easy to see/reach.
The mount works great and holds the GPS very snug. I didn't hard wire the unit to the sled's battery, but it still worked great on a -20C day. You can see in the pic that on this fresh snow day, the screen of the GPS kept getting covered, but when breaking trail, I'm not looking down at the GPS very often... just trying to stay out of the rhubarb!
The Garmin Map 76csx works flawlessly. I am upgrading from a Garmin E-Trex Summit, which worked great but lacked mapping capabilities. I was able to load maps from a friend's TopoCanada software, and with the 4 gig card, I have more than I'll need. Since I'll primarily be using this for fishing, being waterproof was a must. This should be my GPS unit for a long time to come!
I also bought the u-bolt mount and look forward to exchanging it between the Foreman 450 and the boat come spring!

| RAM MOUNTS ON MY KAYAK |
|
|
I always carry my Garmin 76 , so I decided to install a ram ball and mount it on my fishing kayak. Loaded with Topo Canada it make a great tool for exploring new lakes and marking favorite fishing holes. Also can be used to track your workout if you are just out for a day of exercise. |

Many years I was looking for a smart and good concept for a reliable and strong holder for my competition laptop and my GPS. I found then the RAM Mounts and I am still very pleased with them. Even if I have rough landings (especially during balloon competition), everything is still at the defined place and this because of the RAM Mounts.
Thanks for inventing them. |

I have been using a homemade GPS mount on my Giant Seek 2 bicycle. It took up too much room on the butterfly/trekking bars. I needed room for my headlight.
I'm planning a long bicycle tour this summer. My Garmin 76CSx hand held GPS with "City Navigator North America NT" software should help me keep from getting too lost. It will also help me track my speed and mileage.
The RAM mount from GPS City holds my Garmin unit securely and is easy to dismount when I am not using it or when I am away from the bike.
It is incredibly easy to adjust the GPS to just the right position and the rubber elements in the mount will protect it from the pounding transited through a solid frame. There are not shocks on my touring bike. |

| HIGH-DIVERSITY PRAIRIE RESTORATION USING GPS |

Prairie Plains Resource Institute (www.prairieplains.org) has been using Garmin GPS units for 10 years in its high-diversity prairie restoration work. Restoration project boundaries are uploaded to the GPS units from the geographic information system (GIS) to guide the planting "rigs" in the field. During planting, track logs are recorded and are then downloaded into the GIS to refine the map of the project site. The result is a high quality graphic with accurate acreage figures for the client. |

I just bought a new (to me) Subaru Outback and needed to install my Sirius Radio and GPS in my new ride. I had a klunky "bean-bag" mount for my GPS (slid off the dash during turns!) and a poorly-designed car mount for my Sirius in my old Subaru. I wanted a nice, clean, easy mount system. An internet search brought me to ExpressMounts and the wonderful RAM mount system. I opted for the sticky on a screw-down plate for both. I used the Ezy Mount system for the GPS so I can easily stash the unit in the glove box. Using the website made it easy to pick which cradle I needed. My Sirius radio slid out easily already from its dock, so I mounted the dock directly to the RAM mount. The 2-sided sticky tape held great! The ball-and-socket adjustment system is brilliant and works great! I am VERY PLEASED with my RAM mount system and ExpressMounts was a joy to work with! |

| GPS LOW PROFILE RAM MOUNT ON MOUNTAIN BIKE |
|
|
I am using a pair of Ram low profile mounts on my Gary Fisher Piranah Mtn bike. (RAP-274)
They allow me to keep the GPS units close to the handlebars and doesn't amplify the vibration I was getting with a standard Ram mounting arm.
As my hobby I map bicycle trails and like having a backup so I won't lose any data. My Garmins haven't failed me yet. My earlier Garmin didn't do maps, so I used the Brunton MPS (AKA Lowrance iFinder) with MapCreate to help me find my way around. Just got an email today that my cradles for the new DeLorme PN 20 and eTrex color were finally being shipped. I was an alpha and beta tester on that unit and want to load the DeLorme maps on it and use it as my secondary unit. Garmin is by far #1 for consumer GPS so it will be my primary focus. However, I will be playing with creating routable trails of my network of GPS enabled bicycle trails. I normally don't get that much glare off my screen guards as seen in the photo. |

I'm using a Garmin GPSMAP76CS (discontinued and replaced by GPSMAP76CSx) on a 2006 Honda Rancher FA 400cc 4x4 ATV mounted by a RAM Mount RAM-B 149-GA14U.
I have bounced this ATV all around and the GPS always stays securely in place and gets me where I want to go. |
