Centrepin Posted September 4, 2022 Report Share Posted September 4, 2022 (edited) I'm 5 years retired now but I always found tom-tom was the best. I also used Google maps to check and view the destination Edited September 4, 2022 by Centrepin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also used Google maps to check and view the destination Tks Centrepin, Looked at TomTom, Garmin etc, just seems to be a plethora of them out there these days, just good to get real world users opinions. The Tom toms still get good reviews and are rated the best on several sites. Don't want to get 1 then change it later due to cost of these. scobydog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vince Green Posted September 4, 2022 Report Share Posted September 4, 2022 There are special sat navs for lorries and coaches to avoid narrow pinch points and low bridges etc Down in Cornwall the big motor homes get stuck down the narrow lanes trying to use an ordinary sat nav Don't know where you get them from Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loriusgarrulus Posted September 4, 2022 Report Share Posted September 4, 2022 https://www.garmin.com/en-GB/p/589530/pn/010-01856-10 These are quite good. You can programme your vehicle dimensions in for it to check your best route. The camera is a good option too. I have the car version of this and have been pleased with it. They do versions for caravan and campers too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
