Looking at the spot gen3 at Cabela's.com
Says there is a 50% rebate if you buy before July 31 Still not sure I need one. this looks like a manufacturer rebate, it shows on Cabelas and Bass Pro websites. |

I have a gen 3, works pretty good, doesn't work real well in deep canyons or under tree cover ( as far as dropping pins on your route map ).
I don't ride without it as pretty much everywhere my friends and I ride there is NO cell service. 100$ a year for the subscription is fucking cheap if it saves you or one of your buddies lives. |

Search some reviews first. After reading lots of negative reviews I went with the Inreach and never lost service once all through Central America. I could text through it and actually could use my phone as a Bluetooth keypad.
Inreach spot is a common thread at ADVrider and inreach seems much more popular. |
