This is what I don't like about Garmin. br>I was dissatisfied with the navigation in Class A.
1. Routes for Class trucks are not displayed.
2. Bridge heights are not displayed. br>In terms of Commercial Vehicle GPS, these two items are all I require. All of the extra information and fluff can be found on my Google Maps. br>The Garmin reviews were very positive in comparison to the competition, which leads me to believe that the information and technology are not available from any other GPS manufacturers. br>Whoever develops a product based on this database will be a huge success. br>What I like about it is how well it fits and finishes. br>Thank you for your patience, Disappointed.
Apart from the main part, the majority of features are excellent, the display is excellent, and everything is excellent except for the suction cup. Garmin navigation is terrible. Even if you use the shortest route, it will almost always take you a longer route. Even when the size of the vehicle is entered, the truck mode brings up a lot of dead ends, roads that don't exist, and so on. Google maps is much better, and there is no need to buy a separate unit. This could only be the case in Maine and New Hampshire, so I'm not sure what the situation is like in other states.
This GPS system is extremely effective. I pull doubles for a living, so I appreciate the fact that it can be configured for doubles and triples. I also appreciate how well it integrates with my smartphone for traffic; traffic works much better with my phone than it does with the plug on the other Garmin GPS. So far, everything has been spot on.
There are a lot of options here. Sort the truck stops according to their names and features. You're five miles away from a weigh station, according to this message. I've been using it for three weeks and am very pleased with it. The speed limits are the only thing that bothers me. This is due to the fact that everything is being mapped out. You're in a 65, but it says 55, or you're in a 35, but it says 45. Keep an eye on the signs to ensure that you're driving at a safe speed. This is what I recommend for a GPS that isn't too big. You don't really need the big ones because you'll be listening to it while driving.
DO NOT BUY this is a complete giant waste of money for a trucker if I worked days I'd be totally screwed at times from using this gps sent me down roads with cars parked on both sides in residential areas and told me to go down parkways. Thankfully I have a brain and.
Garmin GPS could only be used in conjunction with my phone's Google maps. This product isn't very accurate, and it doesn't recognize new roads or structures. New warehouses are springing up all over the place these days, according to Garmin. (This is where Google Maps comes in handy. ) In Phoenix, AZ, a new stretch of Loop 202 south has been open since December, but Garmin doesn't recognize it; in Chicago, I wanted to get on I55 north from Damen Ave, but my new $300 GPS said "No trucks," which was false. This navigation system ought to cost no more than $75. Garmin needs to get out there and update their maps. I should be able to locate a warehouse in Haslet, Texas, that was built more than a year ago after spending $300 and updating my maps. Garmin's maps aren't very accurate, so I'm going to return this GPS. I'll look into Rand Mcnally; hopefully it will be superior to Garmin.
For truckers, this is an excellent tool. It saved me a two-hour wait due to construction in Idaho near Blackfoot. It took me around it by taking a different route. br>When you connect it to your phone via Bluetooth, it will alert you to construction, road objects, and accidents, among other things, that have been reported to it. Montana has erroneous speed limits. It has the state border off by about 4 miles going south on 15, and it shows 70 mph for back highways and 65 mph for freeways. Montana's map is in need of an update. It will show you the weather forecast for the next few days on your route. br>Keep in mind that a GPS is a tool, not a rule. Always read the signs on the highway and keep your wits about you.
It told me to turn right and do a u-turn while in car routing mode. Instead of turning left on a road that has been there for more than a decade, you should turn right. Also, it couldn't route me to the DMV's address without adjusting the point on the map; otherwise, it would say I arrived while driving on a highway with nothing on either side; if it can't do car routing correctly, I'm concerned about its tuck routing abilities. Several times, the mobile app froze. It's a bad idea to save addresses in general. Even at maximum volume, it can be difficult to hear.
