I dont have a gps-never used one and dont plan on it-use the atlas and directions on the qual com and do fine.

Why would you want to take a hard-headed approach to doing things out there on the road? Life for truckers is tough enough without making it even harder on ourselves. GPS is about the best tool available on the planet to help navigate the country. I drove truck for a number of years before GPS systems even became available so I saw both sides of it and that was the greatest change I saw in 15 years of driving. Nothing in the world like it.

Refusing to use a GPS doesn't make sense on any level. It's an amazing navigation tool.

I would have to agree with Brett and Guy. I would use both GPS and an atlas. No such thing as having to much information.
