Other than having my wife hold it in her lap, do you folks have a suggestion? It's supposed to mount on the yoke in front of the wheel & then hang centered in front of the wheel. That's pretty uncomfortable for me.... Thanks, Dick S. > Dick,
Like you, I had a Garmin 195, but I also found it too big & bulky. As Jim Truxel, I bought a Garmin GPS III Pilot and mounted it on top of the instrument panel, off center right. Hopefully I will be able to attach a couple of photos. GPS III Pilot has same capabilities as the 195 plus you can view it vertically like the 195, or horizontally like the 196, 296, & 396. It does have a smaller screen, but if I tilt my head just right to line up the correct lens in my trifocals, my 60 yr old eyes can see it good enough for what I need!
