2082021 发表于 2023-09-20 17:49:14 Why get a GPS if your using Truckers Path? It’s all I use!

","text":"I'll tell you way, it has froze up with me when I really needed it, at least I was smart enough to WRITE the directions down after I called the place I  was going to. and it has sent me to the wrong place and even sent me down a road that wasn't made for trucks. I actually got out of my truck and walked down to see if a truck could get there. and it had a 10 ' 9  clearance","replyToPid":476956}

{"replyTo":"","text":"Garmin is good except for truck routing(which is a dammed big exception!).\n\nRand McNally can't do voice control.  It can only search for new locations and only if it has an active internet connection.  Garmin you can control everything by voice, of course it may hear Emerald City Way, Merry Olde Land of Oz when you ask for Main St. \n\nRand McNally display is a lot less intuitive and doesn't have an elevation(hills) display.\n\nI'm not sure the Rand McNally is any better at truck routing than Garmin.","replyToPid":0}
