I've been a Garmin guy forever and have tons of waypoints. I'm looking for help to transfer these GPX waypoints I have downloaded to a memory stick into the Ranger's Nav system. Can't seem to find any way to import them. Please help......................Old Iron

@Frenchy has experience with this kind of thing. Hey Chris, any chance this can even be done or is OP limited to using a separate device?

My hope is that I don't have to sit in my truck for days, and days manually inputting all these waypoints.

To my understanding factoring navigation will not accept any GPX information.

Sounds like I'm screwed, and will have to manually input all my favorite waypoints. OH, well the weather is finally breaking down here in southern AZ and it won't be too bad

Weather "breaking" here in AZ is certainly relative 😆
Glad YOU are seeing some relief! 😉

The weather in Southern AZ is so much better than the blast furnace in Phoenix!🥵

Ok, I need some help. I got the essential waypoints in. How do I remove a waypoint that I don't want. Also is there a way to rearrange these waypoints the way I want them? Thanks..........Lenny.

The delete I figured out but the sort. I don't think I have an option. Garmin at least is in alphabetical order

The addresses are stored in the order that they were entered. I haven't found a way to sort them.

I mounted my Garmin in that cubby on the dash. I'm trying to get used to the Ranger Nav but I'm pretty sure I'll be going back to what I love and understand. Thanks for all the insight..........Lenny.
