We just ordered the Garmin eTrex Vista Color GPS and would like to know what is the best mounting for this.........
Susie-
Stitch mailed that software we talked about yesterday.
you can get garmins handlebar mount for it, but if you really want a nice mount get a ram mount you can buy the molded plastic piece to fit ur unit and then get all sorts of bases to use in different places. http://65.102.174.119/rammount/productdetail.aspx?partnumber=RAM-B-138-GA5
Susie-
Look here, item 5 -
(Bigscrb15 is close, but that won't fit the Vista Color model.)

It's about $35 from RAM, maybe cheaper somewhere else.
good catch kurt, i thought i posted the link for the vista color
No problemo. The only reason I caught it, was Susie's husband called me earlier tonight, saying that the regular eTrex mount won't fit the color model.
I've already broke a garmin mount. Although expensive, I'm considering one of these.

I got a ram mount on ebay for $23, but I was lucky. They're about $35 regular. Check here and other places. Ram mounts are worth the price, you can put them just about anywhere you want and lock it down.
