Default Harley Roadtech Quest

Didn't have mine more than an hour and I screwed it up.

Don't get me wrong, I'm very familar with GPS's. I decided to sell my StreetPilot III to get the Quest.

I love it and am glad I did it, but...

After I loaded the update from the Garmin site and went to delete some maps that I had just put in, I LOST all of the Harley Dealer data!!![:@]

There's an Icon to search dealers, but I deleted the info...somehow! I just got off the phone with Garmin Tech support and they confirmed that it's gone.

So now I have to send it back to Garmin (7-10 days) and get it re-loaded.


Anyone else to do an upgrade to 3.50 without losing their dealers??



nuts.

I did the 3.50 upgrade without losing anything. I remember reading a warning about it, so was careful not to delete anything.

I don't remember seeing the warning, I just followed directions, did the upgrade, and I still have my dealers...

I thought there was an option to restore the thing to factory configuration from the website...[sm=sorry.gif] this happened, kind of sucks.

I did the upgrade within a day of getting mine, no problems at all, but I did my update before I had any of my maps loaded, so I didnt' try and delete anything.

If all you lost was the dealer info, it sounds more like a blessing to me!

I've been kinda wondering myself how sturdy the connections are on the base. I didn't get a chance to get it out on the road yet since I screwed it up the first night.

Too much play in the connections?
