Your XT hitting 52% isn't an issue, neither are the maps loaded to it. They are all perfectly normal I believe.

That map list is what I had as well. I turned off all maps for areas that I would never ride in (CN NA NT Canada & Mexico, TopoActive Middle America, TopoActive Canada/Alaska). I don't know whether there is any benefit to doing this.

Although it looks like you have two or three maps that are the same on Basecamp, they are not. Its the same map broken up into chunks by Garmin. I made the same mistake and removed one of the chunks on the European mapping then went on holiday. I had no road maps for France and Switzerland, just showed the vehicle on a blank background when I got there. Duh..

Thanks for the help. There are some maps that I'll never use like all of the TOPO maps along Canada & Mexico. Only thing I would be interested in is the US and National Parks. I may want Canada later on but, not for now. I do see that all of the maps on the XT are somewhat different. Also, I see Garmin Express that you can pick and choose regions. I'd like to do by starting over but, I don't want to duplicate anything by doing so. What's the best way to start over without duplicating? Thanks again, appreciate your help. Ray
