Generically, the answer is “Garmin Mapsource”; the precise edition (”Inland Marine”, “Topo”, “City Navigator North America NT”, etc.) will depend on what you’re looking for..

I heard a rumor that if you buy a new Garmin system (Nuvi series) that does not have the most updated maps preinstalled that you can get updates for free. Is this true? I can’t find anything on the Garmin website without having a serial number first.

You can attempt seeing if there are any available updates by going to https://my.garmin.com/maps/updates.htm and entering the serial number of your device. This will let you know if there are any possible free mapping updates.
If you are getting a message informing you that your Maps are outdated, you can try installing the latest Firmware/Application update for your device. Go to http://www8.garmin.com/products/webupdater/howtoinstall.jsp to download and install any firmware/application updates for your device.
