dont think i have ever used 12. just 23. and i would never rely 100% on GPS. i've heard even Co-Pilot, even with all the truck tools turned on isnt 100%. I use mapquest now, just sometimes hate how slow it runs. i've got too many movies on my laptop......NO...not porn like some will probably ask.

I downloaded alot of custom "POIs" for my NUVI 350 to make it more "truck friendly". I think they have some for the TOMTOM also. Although my GPS has a "truck" option, I, like you, DOUBLE CHECK every route that it gives. The little sucker already tried to put me under a 13'2" bridge in Newark,NJ:lol:. Of course, I think it was mad at me because I refused to follow the route it suggested:lol:. It also quit speaking to me(I have no sound right now, it comes and goes) |
POI Navigator is nothing more than CoPilot v11 running on a standalone device. The software is still garbage.

i hear co-pilot is coming out with a V12 after the beginning of the year. Might be interested in that, but i still cannot justify spending $300 for it when the TomTom will suffice. Thing that kinda annoys me the most, is products have truckers by the balls. They know due to our profession, we need certian things, and we are limited as to where we can go because of our size. I am sure if this 'co pilot' package was sold for hunters or for RV'rs it would be about half the price.
Either way, i will still plan my route with a physical map, and take the directions from my company. unless V-12 is going to run about $200, i dont see the need to spend that much on something 'just for trucks' that will end up leading you down a road with a 13'2" bridge anyways. |
Where has the freight gone?
It's a little known fact-- the Mexicans & Canadians have built a network of underground freight tunnels under the United States-- the freight is moving 24/7-- financed by the Chinese and ran by Indians( remotely of course via the world wide web ) |

meh, i'll stick to mapquest and google maps. the only times i have to ask the customers where i can get back to the freeway without clipping a potentially low bridge is in the usual cities, especially shitcago. |
