Settings, System, GPS Mode, that's where you turn off the GPS on mine (Normal, WAAS/EGNOS. and GPS OFF are the selections I have). I'm sure it's quite similar on yours, since most Garmins are more or less the same. I'm quite familiar with DeLorme. I used to use it extensively. Here's the...

Well then, instead of saying, "Yeah Yeah, blah blah," it would probably be better to refute it if you can. That sort of thing can move productive and thought provoking discussions along far better than the equivalent of "talk to the hand" will. Oh, OK. You had me confused when you stated...

Congress took it, straight up. That's why I noted that for years the USPS has been a cash cow for Congress. Every penny Congress has ever had their hands on, which considering they control the purse strings is all of it, has been handled improperly.

You actually can turn off the GPS receiver, at least on mine. If not easily, then certainly by one of the hidden menus. It has to be turned off in order to perform certain repair and diagnostic functions. But ON or OFF you can look ahead at the route, either on the Map Overview screen or on the...

They're contracted for the pension, but that's not the problem. The problem is Congress forcing them to pre-fund it 75 years in advance (in order to reduce the federal deficit on paper).

Cop steps forward in an aggressive move. I don't think the cop is justified at all. He was informed right up front that there was a physical altercation, and he should be aware that tempers might be running high. Dood called the police for help, and an aggressive cop is the last thing that's...

I really don't think so. It was making money and was in the black, even with declining First Class mail and the rise of e-mail, until Congress stepped in. It's actually the Internet itself that has been a boon to the Post Office, thanks in no small part to packages shipped by the likes of...

It'll take a week or two to get used to it, but once you do I think you'll find it to your liking. Mine won't do everything I want it to, either, none of them will, but once you learn it's capabilities and limitations, it becomes a very useful tool out here.

I don't know. As far as I know, this only applies to CDL holders. Because, like you said, the state has no provision for indicating any self-certification of what kind of commerce in which a non-CDL driver is engaged, much less any medical information for a non-CDL holder. Other than, #2 on the...

An interesting exercise would be to go the Registry web site and do a search for doctors in the town where you live. You may have to use 100 or even 500 mile radius to find one. There isn't any within 50 miles of where I live. Closest one is 100 miles away. There are currently only 8 registered...

{Colored, fonted, and sized for Leo's benefit ;)} Not sure where you got that, though I have an idea, since it's routinely part of articles headlined "A Manufactured Crisis," but the out-of-context quote is barely one side of the story, and misguided and largely incorrect, at that. The one...

It comes defaulted from the factory in Demo Mode. You didn't do anything to get into that mode. Because you don't know the super sekrit method to access the Demo Mode switch. You have to put one finger in the upper right hand corner of one screen, while standing on one leg and scratching your...

There's a demo file that CAN be removed, but it doesn't need to be. Requiring purchasers to remove the demo file in order for the unit to work wouldn't be very customer friendly, I would think.

I just find it interesting that anytime the military is deployed, or anywhere the military is stationed, it's always billed as defending the Constitution and fighting for our rights, when in reality such is rarely the case. And try as I will, I cannot come up with any correlation with defending...

Classic response from someone who would rather dismiss as irrelevant anything that doesn't line up with their beliefs, even if what they are dismissing is an irrefutable truth. Thank you. In return I won't bother to point out your inability or refusal to do the same. Perhaps, but the UNUDHR is...

Not really. If you don't have a CDL in the first place, like a cargo van driver who doesn't haul HAZMAT, then none of the new medical certification requirements apply at all. Interstate Excepted is defined as the following type of commerce: If the only type of commercial driving you do is one...

The government doesn't own the post office. It is a self-funded independent agency of the federal government, mandated by the Constitution, so for it to be sold by anyone we'd need a Constitutional Amendment to do so. In what way? How? It received no public funding, and it's cheaper to send...

Doing a hard factory reset to clear user data really isn't the same thing as changing modes. If it comes default from the factory in Demo Mode, and a lot of Nuvis do, doing a hard reset will clear user data and put it in Demo Mode, the same way it came from the factory.

I, too, am still curious as to how invading Iraq defended the Constitution, or our rights. I'm thinking about approaching Fox or CBS about an idea for a new competition-based reality show: Hate-the-Military Slugs versus Military Facists. It'll be wild and wacky.

Yeah, it was a pretty intense survey. It was also heavily oriented towards TL and LTL carriers, which makes the inclusion of an expedite carrier on the list all the more impressive.
