@@4WheelsOnTheRoad Nope not right, look at what they did cutting us off from climbing it, give them a inch and they take a mile. Ayers rock to all I know.
Very informative video hope you will do more. Just bought the Overlander and have already learned a few things from you I had a HN7 but it broke. Thou i loved the HN7 the HX2 seems crap and many people ive talked to say the gps always drops out so that.s why i bought the Garmin. So far it seems good will find out next week when we go away
That’s bloody awesome iv just bought one of these devices upgraded from the Vms can’t wait for it to turn up and start playing around with it thanks heaps for the video
No probs, thanks for watching and subscribing greatly appreciated! I have a few viewers from over your way and been travelling there myself, I love England!
Looks cool. My last in car GPS died and I been contemplating a Hema, but might look at this also. Good luck on the Uluru trip. Me and some mates are looking to do Cape York this year.
Oh wicked! The cape would be an awesome trip, yeah after owing this and the Hema I so prefer this, just so much easier to use on so many levels, I’m doing a few more videos upcoming on this also. OVERLANDER is expensive but a million times worth it I gotta say
hi there Trickster, no need to navigate via lat and long. that's done mostly in the back end, fastest way to do it is find the spot on the map then press on the map to put a pin in. but if you HAD TO do it you can use the search function in the map then scroll to the bottom of the page then search via 'coordinates' and enter it there (but its a rubbish way of doing it and takes ages to enter the data)
Thanks for sharing. I was testing the Explore website and got confused that it didn't calculate the route precise. I would prefer it does to get a better idea about the km's to drive. I like the idea to draw the route on a pc or tablet and send it to 'a' navigation device. Since your review is 2 years old, are you still using the Overlander and still happy with it?
hi there, yep I still use the Overlander and love it! truth be told I prefer it for the voice commands for navigation. I thought myself that it would be great if the app snapped to roads before it uploads to the device if that is what you are talking about, agreed. The alternative to this is just to do it directly to the device and you will get turn by turn navigation from there if you do it via the drive screen, you can then store it as a route or track etc
@@4WheelsOnTheRoad Thanks for sharing. So in your option it's 'good enough' and easy to do to create routes on the Overlander itself? So I could also do that at home before we leave? That could be indeed a good alternative. After my post on this video, I've seen also your video's about the Garmin Tread. Which one do you like the most?
@@Tilburger72 definitely good enough, I love the extra features on the Tread like I said in the videos but, gun to my head I would choose the Overlander, for everyday use it’s so much easier to have voice control especially when driving, for big trips and tours and off-road I always use the Tread
@@4WheelsOnTheRoad Och then I've missed those video's. I will check them out. I still think it strange that the Explore website seems to work better in your country then in the Netherlands A garmin dealer advised Basecamp. Not sure about that so an other option to check. Thanks for your replies!
Great stuff, thanks for sharing! Can it import gpx routes created with other apps (Gaia GPS, for instance)? And here goes a (perhaps unusual) bonus question: I often follow tracks sent by friends or found online, but follow them in the opposite direction they were planned. Does the Tread have an option to "reverse route order"? Or would it insist I'm going the wrong way and cause trouble with turn-by-turn navigation? Thanks a ton and keep up the good work!
yes you can import gpx into garmin connect and edit in Garmin Explore and also direct import from a memory card and open and edit from there as well. as for the second part of the question I have not tested this as yet .. but you may be able to do it by using trackback but I will have to test and see if that works, I'll get back to you on that
Try going on explore (on the Overlander device) then account at the bottom right and make sure sync user data is on. I had the same problem and that fixed it. Happy trails :)

Hi there, yes it came with a suction Ram adapter, I had spare ram mounts from messing about adding and moving my hema and other stuff previous. Not a lot of people want to put screws into their dashboard so I can see why they only provide a suction mount
@@4WheelsOnTheRoad heh, not a ram ball mount but a ram ball adaptor you screw onto the magnetic mount so you can fasten it to ram arms I'm pretty sure most of us 4x4 already have installed in our rigs. The yanks and Brits get it in the box, I got the screws for it, but not the ball. Just seeing if Garmin Australia is just ripping me off or everyone gets ripped off.

Ayers Rock you mean, great job on the vid.

Just purchased this unit. It appears the voice access requests have been removed in Australia now. Garmin help in Australia confirmed this to me.
Oh wow

is that the big rock in the middle of australia
Maybe.
How do you enter co-ordinates (Latitude/Lon), so that you can get a "Go To", heading and distance?

hi nice vid, really helpful , ? how do i rotate the screen to portrate in DRIVE mode?
hi cj sorry for the late reply, i dont have it in forn of me now but it should be under 'settings' then 'display' then orientation
Ive done everything you possibly explained but i cannot get the data from my computer to my overland device ??Not sure what I'm doing wrong.
Have you set it up for WiFi and/or Usb sync via garmin Express?
@@4WheelsOnTheRoad thanks for the reply im not sure ill try through GARMIN EXPRESS and let you know, cheers for your reply much appreciated!!!
Try going on explore (on the Overlander device) then account at the bottom right and make sure sync user data is on. I had the same problem and that fixed it. Happy trails :)
I am using the Garmin Overlander and can't seem to find how to change from MPH to KPH are you able to help?

More on the Garmin to come
Got me one of these last month but it didn’t come with the ram ball adapter you screw into the magnet base. Did you get the ram ball with yours?
Hi there, yes it came with a suction Ram adapter, I had spare ram mounts from messing about adding and moving my hema and other stuff previous. Not a lot of people want to put screws into their dashboard so I can see why they only provide a suction mount
@@4WheelsOnTheRoad heh, not a ram ball mount but a ram ball adaptor you screw onto the magnetic mount so you can fasten it to ram arms I'm pretty sure most of us 4x4 already have installed in our rigs. The yanks and Brits get it in the box, I got the screws for it, but not the ball. Just seeing if Garmin Australia is just ripping me off or everyone gets ripped off.
@@LungFai76 Just bought mine and it came with the ram ball adaptor so maybe get onto the place you bought it from
