I saw Mr Mulligans GPS display on a 64 mph run, now I need a speedometer and a compass. Curiosity can make you poor.
I'll shop new used and revamped with warranty,, and here of course.
The big deal is the display. A real time compass and speedometer that's easy to read
Everybody favors etrx model newest" I am an analog guy, or old geezer if you prefer.
The only ads using this display in their picture are for the "20. Maybe they all do it, but I can't sort the specs out enough to be sure.
Please somebody. Tell my which ones do this arrow compass and easy speedometer display? If it comes attached to a Dominator that would be okay.

My Delorme Earthmate does that. Randy - 14-3-2018 at 06:27 AM
Looks like my etrex 10 does that too. I have it mounted on my buggy now. I can read the speed when I'm riding, but it's hard because of lack on
lighting and contrast. If I'm going any speed at all my buggy bounces around so much I can't read anything.....Ed Cline - 14-3-2018 at 07:02 AM
I'll be in your boat Randy, bump bump. I should experiment with my truck gps and some duct tape first.
As for the earthmate, well for the price it ought to steer for you. Worth a look, thanks.BeamerBob - 14-3-2018 at 07:36 AM

I got mine on sale for $125Windstruck - 14-3-2018 at 09:37 AM
Sally, I've been most pleased with my Garmin etrex 20x. I searched around on the net and bought one new at a reasonable cost. As others have noted
above, once things get moving and shaking it is awfully hard to read these GPSs. This can be compounded if it is a bright sunny day and you have
sunglasses on. To preserve battery life I (and I assume most) set the little guy up to only shine it's back light for a short period of time before
going darker again. It would no doubt be easier to read with the back lighting on, at least for the first 30 minutes or so...RedSky - 14-3-2018 at 06:24 PM
Interesting, I did not know the 10 could do that. There's no arrow however. Instead, the N,E,S,W just spin around. jeepersjoey - 14-3-2018 at 08:10 PM
Setup a custom dashboard and you can get all sorts of good info at a glance.
I like the Speedo in big numbers with 4 windows (fastest, current distance, current speed and total distance)...or something like that.
I like my etrex20 a lot.
You can get them used for $50.

I first had this one. Had it about 5 years. It's in the lake.
Had this one for a few. Someone found it before I did one day.
I'm not buying another one. Now I just use the one I use for Windsurfing.
