Garmin GPSMAP 5212 question

Post by Doug »

I receintly changed from a Garmin 3010 to a 5212. On the 3010 there was a trip odometer. I cannot find it on the 5212. Any of you know how to display the trip odometer?
Thanks,
Doug

Hey Doug, I did some looking around and found a post on The Hull Truth that implied there is not a "Trip Odometer" on the 5212. I also scanned through the owner's manual on-line, didn't see anything there.

Don't you just love it when a manufacturer "improves" a product and then you can't find things that you know are there? :roll:

I'm STILL trying to figure out the latest versions of Microsoft Office...

Glad you found it.
