Thanks for the help, I appreciate it. I also have the new Garmin 465T, but I'm not going to rely just on it!


Have a great day!!!

NJTurnpike I95 north to exit 18E for I495 East to the lincoln tunnel (13'6" OK. No flammables)
Once in NYC, catch an even Street (one way east) or head North to 42 ST (two way and 4 lanes) and head east past Broadway (one way south) to Ave of the americas (6th Ave). Left on AVE of the americas toW 45th St. Make a left and stop before Broadway. get out and walk. Find out were receiving is. Good luck, enjoy the sights. Your one block south of Times Square.

You won't be able to unload on Broadway.

In NYC....
Left turns are better than right. If you leave too much room on the right, a car will try to squeeze in, Guaranteed.
Streets run E/W. Even # Sreets run East. Avenues run N/S. Even Aves generally run North. Never get on a Parkway in a CMV. NO TT's allowed thru the Holland Tunnel (South end of the island at Canal ST).
