- Finally_TimeExplorerI have a Rand McNally 7730 with a 7 inch screen. The length, height, and weight for the RV or RV plus tow or towed vehicle can be set. The GPS will then route you away from low tunnels and bridges. It can be set to avoid small roads and dirt roads. There are lots of other settings for warnings about going over the speed limit, approaching sharp curves, construction zones, etc. I travel by myself; the cat is no good about reading maps and gets bored with the smart phone or tablet, so I appreciate the step by step directions and the visual showing which lane to get in for exits and interchanges. Also the motor home speedometer is hard to see it some lighting so I find myself using the GPS speed indicator – much easier to see. I am very happy with this GPS and now that I am used to it, I find it easier to use than the Garmin in my car. There is a learning curve though, it takes a while.
- Sgt472ExplorerI'm not sure about that model but I have the newest RM software in my coach dash radio and there "Dock" software is not user friendly. You have to physically plug your unit into internet connected PC to get updates and half the time it freezes. The trip planner software is decent when it works. The actual GPS navigational software does work good and seems to be acurate
