It looks like I would have to re-patch it after every map update since Garmin Express won't let you download the map until the firmware it updated to the latest?
Firmware is not updated every Map update ,the group with
HWID 2268 (Drive, DriveSmart 60/70, software version 6.10) didn't have a Firmware update for 4 years until the 2nd quarter of this year.
6.00 was available Nov 08, 2020
6.10 the latest May 1, 2024
Patch kits generally have the Firmware advanced by 1 or 2 to 6.12 so Garmin Express won't overwrite it with 6.10.
