Ive got the Rand Mcnally 530. It works great, does what I need.

Always remember, a GPS is just a tool and should not be relied on all the time. Nothing beats a map book.

You will find there are some locations that say truck route, but really they aren't, always use a map book. I like to use Google Maps, Earth, GPS and my book.

Thank you much guys

Sam I have a Rand 720 not driving yet though! Type gps in the search bar at the top. Several threads on this subject will come up

Thanks

Well im new to trucking I understand an atlas is the recommended way to go..but a gps is also very helpful which one is the best one that will show everything ..such as bridges, truck stops, rest areas...etc

Ok, so I just got my last check, and I'm feeling pretty hopeless right now. Going back through my pay history and doing some basic addition, I made $1533.20 net for the month of December. Some simple multiplication shows that if that's all I can expect, I'll net about $18300 - $18400 my first year.

Is this normal? I haven't even ttaken any home time since I left on November 3rd. Am I getting screwed? What can I do to make this better? I can make more flipping burgers than driving at this rate. Any ideas or advice would be greatly appreciated!

Wow dude.try wel companies they start out.non experience.drivers at .35 cpm

I'm having no luck what so ever finding a driving job after just getting out of prison. Seems like all the companys that do hire felons require your felonys to be at least 3 years old. By the time mine are 3 years old, I'll have missed out on alot of driving. My parole officer has agreed to let me drive from state to state, but now I cant find a driving job. I feel like I'm up against a wall at every turn. I hate that I cant put my class A CDL to use. Does anybody have any suggestions?

When was your sentenced? Use that not your released date it helped individuals I know land a job as truck drivers
