    About 2 years ago there were some orgs that allowed you to access PCMiler . I think it was limited to 5 times a month. Bulk Loads was one. Was very handy. But they discontinued the free use on that web site. anyone know other sites that offer the same service. I googled but came up with a bunch of hacker sites.

    Truckers GPS?
    CoPilot App?

    The CoPilot App is part of the same company that has PC Miler.... (I think) ... And it's normally on sale in the fall... (Historically)

    For clarification - you are correct. PC Miler and CoPilot are "products" Made by ALK Technologies. ALK was bought recently by Trimble.

    CoPilot is their proprietary GPS / truck routing program for Windows, Android, iOS. It contains the routing data from their PC Miler product.

    PC Miler is their proprietary Routing / Planning / Mileage / Dispatching tool for companies (office use type of product.) The routing & maps part is used on their CoPilot products.

    There was a popular windshield style GPS product a few years ago called "PC Miler Navigator" in 4.3", 5", and 7" screen sizes. But is was discontinued in favor of just making it a software app as mentioned above.

    There is a 14 day trial of the CoPilot on the Android app store. I don't know if that is true for the iTunes store as well, but probably. It is also, as you said, often put on sale for $99 after black Friday (but I can't declare when and if they do sales in the future.)

    Some web sites use PC Miler as a web-based app but it usually comes bundled with whatever other member services that site sells. I do not know of a current site doing that for free though.
