RIDING RADIO FOR GROUP GETAWAYS
The included Group Ride Radio allows tracking for up to 20 riders with no cellular coverage needed. Plus, the push-to-talk fist mic1 lets you easily stay in communication with your Group Ride friends. Pair Tread with your helmet or headset (not included) enabled with BLUETOOTH® technology for hands-free communication.
OFF-ROAD RUGGEDNESS
Purpose-built for all-terrain use, Tread stands up to anything the elements can throw at it. It’s IPX7-rated for water-resistance and built to U.S. military standard 810 for thermal and shock resistance.
HIGH-VISIBILITY DISPLAY
With its ultrabright 5.5” glove-friendly touchscreen, the Tread navigator is designed for easy viewing in bright sunlight or pitch dark. It can be mounted in portrait or landscape mode.
MAPS FOR OFF-ROAD
Tread features preloaded topographic maps of North and Central America and detailed street maps of North America. It also includes U.S. Forest Service Roads and trails and Motor Vehicle Use Maps (MVUM) for full-sized 4x4s, side-by-side, ATVs and motorcycles.
KNOW YOUR BOUNDARIES
Access public land boundaries for national forests, Bureau of Land Management (BLM), wilderness areas and more. Also, see private land boundaries and landowner information for parcels greater than 4 acres.
SATELLITE IMAGERY
Download high-resolution BirdsEye Satellite Imagery directly via Wi-Fi® connectivity, with no annual subscription required.
Track through the outback — and stay in touch with your friends.
EASILY SYNC YOUR DEVICES
Use the Tread app2 to sync waypoints, tracks, routes and collections across your devices, including your mobile device, computer and Tread navigator. Easily import and share GPX files, too.
MOUNTS WITH MUSCLE
The included powered mount and wiring harness with tube mount secure your Tread navigator to your powersport vehicle for riding over rough terrain.
ABC SENSORS
For tough-terrain guidance, built-in sensors include an altimeter, barometer, compass and pitch/roll gauges.
INREACH® COMPATIBLE
Pair your Tread powersport navigator with one of the compatible inReach global satellite communicators3 (sold separately) for two-way text messaging, interactive SOS and weather.
DOG TRACKING
Wirelessly pair Tread with select Garmin GPS dog systems (sold separately) to help track and retrieve your sporting dogs in the field. You’ll see markers for each dog within tracking range, overlaid right on the navigator’s map screen. Directional cues help you easily follow and locate each dog you’re tracking.
GO-ANYWHERE GUIDANCE
Get spoken turn-by-turn directions if you choose to take Tread with you when you head back to civilization and want on-road navigation. Includes driver alerts for sharp curves, red light/speed cameras4 and more.
Onboard tools for the ultimate off-road experience.
LIVE WEATHER
Weather ahead? Pair Tread with your compatible smartphone, and download the Tread app to access live weather, storm alerts, animated radar and more2.
TRAVELING MUSIC
A built-in media player lets you easily control music loaded on your compatible smartphone on the navigator’s display — and hear your tunes through your helmet or headset (sold separately) enabled with BLUETOOTH technology.
ADD A CAMERA
What’s around your side-by-side? Maximize visibility by pairing Tread with a rugged BC™ 40 wireless camera with tube mount (sold separately). It easily mounts to your vehicle’s tube frame, flat panel or roll cage.
CONTROL YOUR ACCESSORIES
Pair Tread with the compatible Garmin PowerSwitch™ digital switch box (sold separately) to enable on-screen control for your side-by-side’s 12-volt electronics — light bars, differential locks and more.
POINTS OF INTEREST
Tread comes preloaded with iOverlander™ points of interest and Ultimate Public Campgrounds, so you don’t need a cell signal to route to the best-established, wild and dispersed campsites.
