Best GPS?

Do a search for "PC MILER Navigator 430 - GPS for Commercial Truck Drivers" Around 300 USdollars.

For a bit more you might try looking for "worldnav 7100 truck routing 7 gps"

Sorry, I can't vouch for either but I think it's probably what you are looking for.

I am partial to the iWay 250c by Lowrance. I haven't seen one I personally like better yet. I love my iWay because it's display is an actual map and not something that looks like a map drawn with color crayons. I've also found roads that Garmin and TomTom didn't have.

Another good thing about the iWay is that I can customize my display data. I keep track of my moving time with a threshhold of 15mph to help me acurately sqeeze as much driving time as I can into my log book.

The other cool thing about the iWay is that the whole world is in it. Yes, not actual street maps of the whole world but I can zoom all of the way out and all the world continents are in it with they're larger cities and major roadways that I can zoom back in on. It also has a lot of maritime and wetland data mapped out on it.

The best 200dollars I've ever spent!

 

any idea how much the new garmin will be? im just now getting in the trucking world and need all the help i can get.

 

As per Best Buy.com 499.00. They are available for pre-order if you like. They say they should arrive 6/16-6/25.

 

All Garmins can be used to route for trucks. You just have to build the routes in MapSource first, then send to the GPS. You will get routes as accurate as any other GPS product that way.

 

I use VZ Navigator as I've a Verizon wireless phone. Navigator isn't perfect, but it's served me well for about 3 mos. at just $9.99 p. mo. It can be put into several modes including a Truck mode. Gotta figure Verizon will continually improve it as tech. improves.

 

There are 465T's in use right now,I just saw one used today (4/19/09) dont know where he got it.?
