    OK ALL. After MUCH correspondence and help from cc194217 over the last 24 hours I have made a page with EXTENSIVE info and screen pictures of this system. This should give you the most helpful preview of the product available anywhere (and that was the goal.)

    BE AWARE that my own "road tests" have not been conducted yet because I don't have a production unit to use for a few more days. However, based on my conversations with cc194217 and my looks at the actual screen layouts and functionality we are going forward with putting the TND up on our site. (Again, major kudos to cc194217 for filling in the gaps.)


    Here is the link: Rand McNally TND truck GPS features and screens

    Cheers,

    ooo, it even has a maintenance odometer. Is the trip meter accurate, though? My 465t is off by about 5 miles every day.

    I think this was more in line of what you were thinking.... but the TND 500 has another screen called a Route View... will try to get a picture of that also..
     
    Dave 1960 and arkdave Thank this.

    All, I stated before I live around the Charlotte, NC area... would be happy to come to where you are within 120 miles and show you the unit before you decide to buy or not.

    are you sure it isn't your truck's odometer? or do you update your ecm with every 1/32nd of tread you lose?

    Wouldn't the speed be slightly different between the gps and the truck speedo?
