Which GPS will allow tracks to be loaded to it.

I purchased a Garmin Nuvi only to find that I couldn't take a track from Basecamp and transfer it to my Nuvi 40.
So my bad. Now.. What is a good Auto GPS (Not handheld) that will allow me to upload tracks to it??? It doesn't need to be a Garmin
Thanks from a Noob..

Now... depending on what you want to do, you might have a look at this little free program. It can convert your tracks to transparent Garmin maps (.img files) that you can overlay on another map by enabling it at the same time. This should work on any Garmin automotive device, such as the Nuvi and Drive series.

Here's another similar program that is not free. But it's a lot cheaper than a Zumo. ;)

Have not paid very close attention to it myself, might do what you want. And I got e-mails from them all the time, until I marked it as spam , seems like they had frequent discounts available.
Have not used a TomTom device in over 10 years, but I doubt they will do what you want. There are many, many apps for Android and iOS that might also work. You could just search the Apple App Store or Google Play for "GPS". If you don't have a smartphone, you could get an older model for very cheap and just use it as a GPS without any cell plan. The good apps all allow you to download the maps at home on wifi, then use the phone in the field with no data connection. An iPad or Android tablet is also an option for this kind of app.
