I tried to find, unsuccessfully, information about track recording with GARMIN nuvi models. I had occasion to use a nuvi 50 (with OSM maps) for car navigation. It worked fine apart from the track recording that seems to be permanently in "lock on road" mode, which is not useful if you want to use the recorded tracks for mapping. Is there any similarly simple-to-use Garmin model that does permit to set the track recording without "lock on road", or is there a trick to make the the nuvi 50 forget the lock-on-road mode?
Does "lock on road" definitely cause the _recorded track_ to match the road (as opposed to the "current displayed position used for navigation calculations")? On my old Nuvi 265W it certainly seems that recorded tracks aren't coincident with the road, even when it's displaying a position exactly on the road that it thinks that it is supposed to be on.
