Best GPS or trip planner to avoid low bridges
Hello All, I am not sure if this is the best place to post this thread. Moderators feel free to move as needed. We just purchased our first fifth wheel. It's a Keystone 315 RLS that DW fell in love...

I have the Garmin 660 GPS. It allows you to set up types of vehicles such as car or 5th Wheel or motorhome. You enter the vehicles data such as height, weight and length and it uses this to calculate your route.
On word of caution it will change your route when you least expect it. We travel to Myrtle Beach from south west PA down 79 19 to 77 and it wants to change the route to avoid that steep hill on 77 going into North Carolina. I've towed up and down that hill at least a dozen times or more but the GPS tries to make me avoid it. It definitely works for the height.
Good luck and safe travels!
