gps
We are taking a trip out west this April. We usually use google maps for directions but what does everyone use these days. Thought about Garmin but every system has +s and -s What does everyone use? ...
Is there a GPS that is RV specific? Apple Maps doesn't always cut it. At times have been directed to city streets etc that a truck with a 30ft travel trailer have no business on.
I have been using Garmin products for many years. When we got our first travel trailer I got one of the RV specific units. We currently are using an RV780. You can load in all the specs about your RV and when using their Basecamp mapping program, it will use the height, length etc. measurements for routing. So far it hasn't sent us down any dead end roads or under any overpasses that were to low for our 13'+ clearance. There is a new version as usual, which is $500, but that is for the unit and life time Maps.
Good Luck & Happy Travels
