Re: Garmin Mexico Maps

I looked at Garmin's Mexico City Select map using their web viewer. They spell Villahermosa incorrectly (two words) and it doesn't appear to have any street detail at all - this is a city of over 1,000,000. Same for Palenque, Tuxtla Gutierrez and San Cristobal. There is some detail for Mexico City if that's where you're going.

As I recall, the North Americ base map that comes with my 76CS has as much detail as City Select Mexico for Palenque, Tuxtla Gutierrez and San Cristobal.

I'm going down to Cancun and renting a car and then driving down to a
resort further south in Akumal. City select Mexico doesn't even have
Cancun. Would like to have the secondary roads shown on maps too to
do some touring. Have an old legend to show the maps on. Anyone know
some maps that would do this?

That is because it is now a regular Garmin product. No need to go outside. The original requester didn't know how to look on the site itself.
