GPS specific for RV's

CoPilot app is made for IOS and Android. For ten dollars it does everything the standalone GPS units do and has RV Mode for routing around low clearances and propane restricted roads, bridges, and tunnels. Lifetime free maps. No need for a data connection as all maps are stored on the phone or tablet's memory. There is traffic routing which does require a data connection (uses very little data) and this is free the first year and costs $10 a year after that by subscription.

I think this is all great stuff but for starters, you're talking about a very small phone screen vs a 7 inch full featured GPS. For a few short trips in the summer it would probably be ok, but once you use one of the dedicated RV GPSs, like my RM 7720, I think you'll see the advantages.

There's a reason these GPSs have large screens. It's easy to glance at them and get the whole picture. My 7720 has all kinds of info on the main screen. And additional info is just a tap away.
