Which model Nuvi can I download my routes to? I'm looking for a cheap gps for the bike and don't want to spend over $150 for it. It doesnt have to be waterproof, but would be nice if it is SD card capable. Thanks

I wired my Nuvi 1450 directly to the battery on my snowmobile and it's not charging? I put the much larger wire on the positive with a fuse link?
