I have used GPS Vehicle Tracking Equipment from www.vehiclerecover.com?

I have these GPS tracking units from several dozen of my business vehicles (commercial service fleet), but have gone out of that business now - can I re-sell these and if so, what is the best way to quickly sell them?


~eBay would probably be your best bet, you have access to millions of potential buyers at your fingertips.

Can you use a GPS to find property boundaries?

I have a mountain property and need to find my boundaries. I know that surveyors have expensive GPS equipment. I am wondering if a GPS you can buy at the outdoor store, can be used to locate
the corners of my property.
What brand shall I buy?
No dumb answers please--if you don't own a GPS and don't know what you're talking about, please don't answer.


I've used a GPS unit often in my work and it will help you locate the corners of your property....provided that you have the information you need to first know where those corners are.

The easiest thing would be to have the actual GPS coordinates in latitude and longitude of the 4 corners before you go out with your unit...then you could just trek along until you find the right coordinates (although...be careful, GPS units are usually accurate only to a few meters).

As an alternative, if you know the dimensions of your property and the compass direction, you could do a little math and calculate the coordinates for your property.

Additional accessories or equipment for Garmin Nuvi 255w GPS?

I purchased this gps as a gift for my boyfriend. Other than what comes in the box with the gps, do I need to purchase anything else? I want him to open the box and be able to use it immediately. I am not necessarily looking to purchase addition items for luxury or fun... I want to be sure a that a useful add-on or electronic type component won't be missing. Any ideas or suggestions?


you might want to check the box and make sure it comes with a cord to connect to your computer for updates--most units do come with the cable- some don't. you will want to update your maps, points of interest etc and you'll need that cable to do it....

what other equipment does some one need to use with a GPS reciever?



it all depends on what you want to do with it.

For me, I need a hang glider to properly use my GPS.

You may want a map (some GPS units have them included).
