    When I was otr, i used Garmin (770?) It's okay sometimes it takes me the long way or think some roads is truck restricted when it is not. I use Google maps now but I'm local and got familiar with the area.

    The last gps I used was back in '98 it did fairly well. Excepting that one cellular tower fiasco.

    I'm running a Garmin 780.
    Does a pretty fair job for the most part.
    Before I bought that I use Google, and before that I use the road atlas.

    Garmin.
    I depend heavily on it. 99% of the time it’s great. Other 1%. It’s a goof ball.

    You should check the electronics section. Talk of Rand McNally is true.
