Thanks for the help and input guys. Definitely some good thoughts of different brands. Still haven’t decided what I’ll go with but I’m going to wait and see if any go on sale that I’d be willing to try out. I’ll only be using it primarily for a HUD map that will just always be there while I drive and the occasional “where’s the next truck/rest stop” search.

Hello all, I am starting out on my first OTR linehaul job this coming week and was looking at getting a GPS. I've looked at the Rand and Garmin units and both seem to have their own pros and cons. I'm looking for opinions based on personal experience i.e user friendly, practicality, features, etc. Also not trying to spend $500 on my first unit if possible so if there's recommendations on refurbished or sale sites please do! Thanks!

Just completed the training program with Morningstar Trucking in California. I gotta say it was super easy no stress at all and a lot of hands on experience and practice. 1 on 1 training for 4hrs a day and they let you practice on the truck any time you want to. Passed the test easy and am now waiting for season to start in July to complete my contract with them of one season for a free CDL. Pay is in the $1800-$2400 per week range. Exciting new chapter!
