I myself think it is a good idea, has alot of useful info in it. I also bought one myself and payed $30.00 with tax at flying J in Caldwell ID.
-
Yes. I use it daily. And the laminated pages are great. They don't stain, and if you'd like, you can mark on them with a grease pen. Paid $60 plus tax for it.

Used mine daily. At one point bought the cheaper one and it lasted about a month. But I would fold it open to the state I needed. Cheap ones aren't made for that. Deluxe is.

$39.99 on eBay, with free shipping. http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-RAND-MC...263&pid=100005&prg=1088&rk=1&sd=280921026790&

Guess I should clarify. I purchased the Large Scale one, which is why it cost the extra money. 278 pages of awesomeness.
davetiow and bullhaulerswife Thank this. -
I must have gotten lucky as like I said payed 30.00 for mine and its the laminated Deluxe 2013 and also has maps inside keyed to the IntelliRoute TND truck GPS maps. I think flying J in Caldwell, ID. off I-84
I think exit 29 still has them for that price and for the same map book but not sprialed laminated the binded map book is 20.00. I know this is cheaper than what others here have posted so hope this helps a few of you who are looking for one at a good price and passing by there you can save a few bucks.
God bless and Merry Christmas to you all....silenteagle Thanks this. -
since they come out on a yearly basis. i always buy last years book. it's much cheaper. and the information isn't going to change that much year over year. if there is any changes.
but it's a very handy tool to have. as it offers MUCH MUCH MUCH more then just mapping.Elvenhome21 Thanks this. -
me and a buddy bought ours at the same time i got the deluxe laminated with the spiral spine one. he got the regular paper one we both use ours daily here we are at 4 months and his looks like it went through WWII and mine looks brand new i know for a fact he does not abuse his either I on the other hand do i paid 21.99 no tax for mine it was on sale at a TA in greenland NH it's a 2013 edition i did not get the large font if u got good eyes or good glasses u dont need the big font one + plus the big font was 59.99 and mine was 21.99 so no brainer there
silenteagle Thanks this. -
It's required - you can't be dispatched on one of our high value loads without having one in the truck. You can get them at our company store cheaper than that. Get the regular sized one, and an illuminated magnifier.silenteagle Thanks this.
