As I know Garmin Nuvi can use MFM map, Malsingmaps and Garmin NT map but Papago just can use MFM map. In this case I think Garmin is better. Pls correct me if I am wrong.

Buy an iPad and use its GPS...it is ...much much better than anything Garmin or Papago can offer on the extras... except.. :$gone: .

A GPS is for navigation... having all these extra won't help you reach your destination but can seriously endanger you if you are engross into it. So who's better... your Life or the entertainment/fanciful graphics?... :lol:

This argument will never end... just like the Nikon and Canon forum... but makes good entertainment on a boring Monday afternoon.

Cheers!

lol, maybe for the JCV/ Lane Assist function?

Never tested this, but can we tick to use MFM map, go to POI, press GO, after calculate route then we switch to MalSingMaps?
