Navigation software for a laptop...

We've been using Delorme for 20 years. However, the driver doesn't go by it. It's used to plan the trip and so the passenger can follow along. The route is transferred to a Garmin GPS just to give the driver a heads up on turns, etc. The Garmin doesn't give the detail that Delorme gives. We typically don't travel interstates and we love the Delorme for all the small details and putting in the way WE want to go instead of programming A to B.

We use Microsoft Street & Trip with GPS.

Hi,

Another vote for streets and trips.

I plan all my trips with Streets and Trips. For my turn by turn navigation I've used TomTom GPSs for many years. I like the idea of DW following along on Streets and Trips while I follow my trusted TomTom.

Here is the best

Copilot Live for laptop

I made this pvc netbook holder and use the program CoPilot live for laptop as well as their android version on my Galaxy S3

X2 here. The navigator has the power to overide the stand alone GPS if for any reason a deviation is deemed necessary or planned contrary to what the stand alone GPS thinks.

I've used DeLorme Street Atlas with a GPS receiver for many years. Mine plugs into a USB port but a Bluetooth model is available.

We use Streets and Trips. One navigates and the other drives. We have the trip planned on the laptop and modify it as we go.

Been using Delorme for a little more than a year. Love the detail when driving. The planning features are over the top too. But the software has a learning curve like a brick wall! Almost nothing is normal Windows or normal map-like, and very little is "Intuitively Obvious". You have to print out the manual from the CD and look everything up.

I love having a PC on the Dash too; run Silverleaf and a Hauppauge Board as well as Internet.

In addition to a GPS Navigator we have an APP called "ALLSTAYS". It's great for locating campgrounds, dump stations, Wal-Marts, rest areas, etc. Cost about $5.00 works on Smart Phones, I-Pads etc. It locates where you are on the map and shows where campgrounds are located, approx. fee, Miles from your location, and more info if you have internet at your location. You can use filters to show only what you want (BLM, National Forest, KOA's, independent CG, and so on. Highly recommend this APP.
