Check in to co-pilot. I use it whe pulling my camper but I'm pretty sure it has a truck driver mode too.
Works great for the camper. I'm sure someone in here has some feedback on it. -
The smartphone app Trucker Path uses Google Maps for routing, so it's not suitable for truck driving as a routing device, but it shows on one screen your current position, nearby trucks stops, weigh stations, walmart, rest areas, and low clearances just by looking at your phone screen while it operates. It's free. I use it for seeing truck stops and seeing details about them, including near real-time parking availability. I think Co-Pilot was the best GPS app for truck driving but it also cost $200, IIRC. For $279 you can get a purpose-built truck driving GPS from Garmin or Rand Mcnally. If you have any fuel points you can get a break on that price. The 5 inch GPS units give you all of the vital info like the 7 inch units but they are $100-150 cheaper. I vote for using a credit card if necessary to get a 5 inch truck gps. It's a tool of your business.Nathanos and Flat Earth Trucker Thank this.

I use copilot on my iphone and diverts around low bridges etc... I dont believe there is a free version.. There is a trial, but i paid for a yearly subscription and its well worth the $99 i think i paid
Nathanos Thanks this. -
I use Copilot. It doesn't always pinpoint address locations, but it does a good job on the routing.
