Looking for advice on equipment

Probably because its more efficient than using his cell phone.. Idk, just a guess.
In some states ya don't have room to pull over and use the atlas.

I've put 160,000~ miles on an inexpensive World Nav GPS and its never put me on a non truck route, or through a low clearance. You have to combine the GPS with the atlas, shipper directions and plain ol common sense, of course.

Not callin ya out but I can't stand when people act like a GPS doesn't work as advertised.

 

Well, a driver shouldn't have to pull over to check their route, after having prepared the route while the brakes are still set.

Exactly. But, my point is, why spend the $ on a truck-specific app when in order to complete your due diligence you have to check your route with the paper RMMCA anyway, no matter which GIS app one might choose?

But, that's not what I wrote, or implied, in any manner. I'm not the gpsman because I don't like GPS.

 

There any Trucker that could please said what the best GPS lately? Thanks to All in the Business Trucking

 

"Best" is subjective. ..its based on opinion. I prefer the Garmin 7" trucker gps. I think its the "best" others like Rand McNally, yet others like Cobra.

 

I have a cobra..works good enuff for me...bought it from a driver in a truck stop slightly used.

 

Handy stuff there rhino. Thanks for sharing.

 

I've been most pleased with my Verizon service. But I've also read on the forum others being pleased with a different carrier.
