    i have a 28 and it has a GPS in it. I haven’t used it because I cannot find the drivers and what to use it with. Also it is the OEM one that has a odd tentacle....thing on the left side
    Links or something like that

    I don't recall any drivers for the GPS. It should put out NMEA data (text) on one of the serial ports. You can test using VisualGPS and similar tools, and use Microsoft's Streets & Trips for map tracking.
