hard time seeing gps in sunlight

[BIG TOM]

I installed a garmin 2720 in my bike recently and am having a hard time seeing it in the sunlight..Tried moving it to different locations to no avail..I know there are sun hoods I can purchase..Other than that ..any suggestions out there to relieve the problem..and yes, I tried the brightness adjustment on the garmin.. It didn't help..any suggestions?

well, you should have Taters driving and with you on the back you can use your hand to block the sun from the screen. hows that for a solution.

I can tell you that if you're wearing polarized sunglasses it can be hard to see. When I'm wearing my polarized glasses I usually have to pull them down and look at the screen without them.
