No. I is a metal plate mouted to the underside of the top of the dash. It mounts using strong 3m double sided sticky tape or gorille tape(this stuff is strong and my preferred tape). Then the ram suction cup mount is on that plate. Then its tethered to the mount. I have seen what you posted on another wing and it looked clean and sturdy. But he screwed that mount into the top of his dash.
Are you able to load .GPX routes into the autombile GPS?
I have never learned or tried to load routes. I would assume you can but not positive. I would like to learn how to bulld and load a custom route. Maybe during the winter I can dink around with that.
I have a Garmin Zumo 660 and drove thru 2 days of constant rain without any problems. Still runs great.
...I just figured out yesterday what was wrong with my Magellan (I think)
Rust
The power connector to the side of it seemed to have some discoloration; I had examined it closer yesterday and started cleaning it with WD40. Seems that some surface rust was present.
Plugged it back in and it didn't misbehave at all for the entire day of riding. So I think that the unit was not getting a good supply of juice and that's why it was going bonkers.
What makes matters worse is that I ordered and received a replacement Garmin Drive 51 LM 5 GPS yesterdayNow I gots two

I'm going to clean both of the male and female power connection areas with some electrical contact cleaner today, and then follow up with a nice glob of dielectric grease to protect it. Should have known to protect that connector from the elements; after all this GPS is not "weatherproof" as was aptly demonstrated to me.

The handlebar ram mounts work great too but I wanted my gps in the center and up near the bottom of the windshield if you dont mind it on your bars then it is a good option
