{"replyTo":"","text":"I have 4 Rand McNally units gathering dust. I think the hardware is junk compared to a decent cell phone/tablet. I've tried a number of apps, each having strong points,  I've settled on Copilot, it's $120 per year I think. The apps seem to be more flexible than a dedicated GPS, and if you're putting in multiple stops or waypoints, apps are way, way faster. \n\nI wonder, why don't Garmin, TomTom and Rand McNally release their own apps. Of course it may hurt their hardware revenue somewhat, but I bet they'll all need a government bailout in the coming years.","replyToPid":0}

{"replyTo":"","text":"my rand crapped out 2 days ago. trucker path has been getting me by just fine. I pay for the gold though. I do notice when comparing the routes the GPS gives me and trucker path gives me they can be quite different. rand usually has a faster route, but tp keeps more updated with new roads and any construction closures","replyToPid":0}

","text":"In my experience, Garmin's truck routing is awful.  Garmin will send you out of the was to avoid what it thinks is a non-truck route AND try to send you down residential streets.","replyToPid":468517}

{"replyTo":"","text":"It is possible to use your tablet with TP, however, I would suggest Rand McNally they are worth the money. They have always proven better then Garmin. If you are just starting out though and pinching funds, you can get away with a tablet and Truckers Path for awhile.","replyToPid":0}

{"replyTo":"","text":"yes, I've heard many times that garmin is often wrong about other gps I don't know anything).. I've only read reviews on аmazon. in fact, I'm really a novice driver here, but I have enough money to buy a navigator about 7-8 inches in size. I would just like to find out if it is so much needed. I tested the tp and it seemed to me that it has richer functionality than in gps navigators (i saw youtube).\n\nthanks you all gentleman’s!","replyToPid":0}

{"replyTo":"","text":"anyway, I just wondered a simple question - is there dire necessity for a gps gadget or is it possible to do only tp app😏 \n\nps - I have enough money to buy garmin, I just don't understand the need for it).. “tp” (plus tablet) it has a much wider functionality. at the moment I'm still considering the gold version.","replyToPid":0}
