Off-line mapping app,s
Sometime back you asked about maps for GPS specifically for your iphoneThe key to getting an GPS off line map one that specifically follows you and updates as you move some do some do not that's where the problem lie so you basically have to test 2 4 or 4 or different kinds as long as they're free you don't mind uploading and you can always delete them
But first I had a 2004 Ford F350 that had in dash navigation system,, It worked fine 90% of the time so after selling the pick up truck I bought a Chevrolet avalanche that has no room for in dash navigation system unless I went with a pop-up but there's been too many problems with those in the wire mechanism and I'm not crazy about the standalone GPS navigation systems out there by the time you figure it out you're going to spend $150 to $250 for one that will work with me that has trucker input and there again it is a small unit and it only does one thing ,,,,,,,,so I went a different route,,,,,,The other day I went to a pawnshop (i'm a big fan of pawnshops )and I picked up a used galaxy tablet three out the door with bargaining I paid $90 for it now this tablet has all the bells and whistles and toys along with Wi-Fi Bluetooth it does everything that my iPad does except I run Android on this tablet. And my LG phone is also an androidNow if you do a search for offline GPS navigation you'll come up with several free apps just make sure you read the reviews as to their limitationsJust a quick reminder The apps that I'm talking about is for an android but you could also do the same kind of search under Apple app,s for an iPhone or an iPad lot of free onesAfter downloading 3 or 4 apps I finally came down with one. Sygic.com
But you also have Google map,, mapQuest off-line,, Here...The one that I downloaded was free but it has a paid feature called premium that is $20 at this time I didn't get it that feature is a heads up displaySo after charging the tablet and uploading the app, I went for a rideAnd this was my results so far I am more than pleasedOne other little note the stand that the tablet sits on is in a cup holder and very very secureAnd it swivels and it locked my tablet very secure it's eBay item for $34 free shippingI'm not a fan of putting my credit card on the Internet to buy an app so I basically use PayPal so if you have a PayPal account all that much better to buy something
$90 is about the going price for a tablet here in The pawnshops inFloridaBut it beats buying a new one in case somebody steals this unit but then again I have tracker on it so I know exactly where it is and I feel sorry for you

Thank goodness for a class 1V trailer hitch
Some times people do get a little upset
I sure hope that wasn't the beginning of his vacation
This wouldn't have happened if the engine was in the front

They're sneaky spying little buggers
I want to know how they get this mini spy shuttle
(it's a reusable unman mini shuttle this is the second time it's gone up that we know of
The last one stayed up over a year)
Inside is rocking pod along with 10 other satellites
To do this
Maybe they had the guys from Allied Van lines packet it,, because it sure doesn't look like there's any room left
Explore exploration tower Port Canaveral
Exploration tower at port Canaveral
pretty interesting and pretty to see a new building in modern concept
This building is not even a year and a half old
It stands and overlooks Port Canaveral,, it,s part office building part museum part restaurant
With the upper floor and observation platform (The museum itself cost five dollars entrance fee but a dollar cheaper for us so farts)
When you look at the backside and drive-by it the skin on the outside change color like an Opel
As the sun hits it and reflects off of it (see the fourth photo)
These five below I took off the Internet Image site
