road atlas

Yep that's the one I have the large print and laminated pages got mine at lee hi truck stop for 56 though .

 

that's the one I was going to order this week.. but got worried that it wouldn't get here on time.. start next Monday. I seen someone mention they have them at a nearby truck stop in Cartersville? anyone can provide more info?

 

You can find road atlases at truck stops pretty easily. There really isn't much more to say than that. The major chains will all carry the Rand-McNally ones.

 

If you found your on ebay for $40 you over paid, unless the shipping was an extra $10 then ok. I got mine when they first came out at the Flying Pilot and paid $29.99 I love it, got the laminate pages and I still got some of my popular routes highlighted. Make sure you know how to read it, and teach others if they don't know because it's some drivers out here that don't know how to read a map at all (cough cough my co-driver) all he know is GPS and that's not good.

 

I buy the non laminated one. but I buy a new one every year, that way I get the new rules in the front part.

Make sure you read those front pages. lots of info in there.

 

I picked one up at Loves last week, the 2013, laminated pages, $29.99 (with tax, $32 something), BUT with a $10 mail-in rebate.

 

I always get the large print laminated ones.

 

Here's what i learn'ed on map's, yes the laminated are nice for spill coffee and stuff, but for me i wish they would make ruled side bar on the side, that way you can jog down note's , such as how much is toll for the state's and stuff, for me just a paper one work's for me, and what i do , is i go too that town , i have different color's high lighters, i mark the town's in pink, then the truck stop's in bright green , that way at a glance i can see the town and closest truck stop at a glance or i mark down all the toll's road's fee too, but these change too, so when i go back, i update as needed ,but the best map book i had and never seen anthor again was the gousha sold by the petro , it was laminated , but with a twist, all the weigh stations on the highways had a little scale along the road and all the truck stop's had a coffee cup symbol, it was neet road map book for 1991 .and do and learn the map book and only use the gps a guide only

 

The large print version drives me nuts. The maps are broken down and i need to flip back and forth too much. I have the laminated standard size and keep magnifying glass handy when needed.
