[MDairheads] Garminâ?~s birthday sale

[Gabriel Ganser]

I’m a fan of the Scenic app for my iPhone.  I paid the premium price for the app and although there is a bit of a learning curve at the beginning, I have not been disappointed.  The app is way cheaper than an Garmin. Can plan trips without cell service once background maps are downloaded.
