So I currently have a Garmin 60CSX but I was considering upgrading to the 62ST. I've read mixed reviews on REI.com but I still am not 100% convinced. I was wondering if anyone on the board has had experience with these two GPS's and if they can offer an opinion.

Thanks in advance!

No, unless you want the birdseye photo option. Only other diff is the compass works in multi postion except horizontal. I'd wait till prices are lower or your other is broken. Although you can get some dollars on ebay for the 60csx to off set some of the cost of the 62st. I'd get the 62s if any of them, then buy the maps you want. Preloaded maps can be a pain (62st).

No. not enough upgrade for the dollars. It's just different mostly, not much better.

Good to know, thanks! I'll stick with my 60CSX and wait for Garmin to pull their heads out and make something that is extraordinary and actually worth the money.
