Anyone have any opinions on either ? There are a few options that make the GPS appealing like showing the closet truck stop but is it worth the $350 ? Can you get the same info with a smart phone app ? I'm new to the industry and I'm trying to save $ where I can. I don't mind spending the money if it will make life on the road a little less stressful but saving money also lessens ones stress. Any input will be appreciated.

Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving.

The Company I am with don't allow any cell phone use at all. Most of our drivers use GPS on the windshield. Advantage's you set it once leave it alone it does the rest. GPS also has truck routing, although it is not always accurate. Cell phones on the other hand don't allow multiple stops and don't have Truck routing. Plus if you get a call right at the time you are make critical maneuvers to reach a customer you can become distracted and make a wrong turn or worse hit something. Do yourself a favor get a GPS and silence the phone and place it were it wont be a distraction. Many company's are instituting Cell phone bans while driving even with a Bluetooth. My company has done just that. When caught first offence write up second termination.
