When power is turned off the car, Nüvi 660 askes for "Stay on" or "Turn
off".
But I only get 30 seconds to answer.

Any way to extend this question to say 2 hours.
Then short stops (delivery trucks) does not destroy quick startup (as it
never was turned off).

My solution was a power outlet that doesn't turn off with the car; not
an answer, but an option for some.

Thanks George
My problem is that that is the way I am working today (on 50 cars), ie
always on.

As I said in thread: "Nuvi 350 connected to cig. ighter all the time" (start
Aug-8), the Nüvi is emptying the car battery in a few days, when left with
Garmin connected, even when turned off!

I might am going to make a delayed-power-off box (ignition-off 2 hours after
real ignition-off), if I cannot make other solution.

PS: Some cars can make cigar-lighter on at all time by moving a fuse from
one power source to another.
