I'm starting very soon with a company that advertises Navigo GPS on all their trucks. I have had little luck finding any info or reviews on a Navigo. It's really no big deal because I learned a long time ago (the hard way) not to rely too heavily on GPS. Anyone ever used a Navigo?
Navigo isn't a GPS unit. It's a routing program. Most of the major companies use it for the load routing. Its built within the Qualcomm. So when you get your routing for the load that's the Navigo giving you the routing. It's accurate and definitely gives McNally a run for its money. But always triple check routing no matter what.
Thanks Daniel B. Do they work the same way in a pink truck?
I'm late to the show but I figured I'd give my take on this as well. I bought a Rand McNally and it was SO AWESOME when I felt it, so rugged and tough! But the processing is incredibly slow, the buttons I pushed would take a few seconds before registering. An annoyance at most right? But what really threw me off was the fact it needs wifi to do pretty much anything from address searching to traffic! That killed it for me, can't afford to have my phone all badass right now with a lot of gigs and tethering.
Went and got the Garmin Dezl 760 LMT and its perfect for my needs now, no lag and don't need a wifi signal unless I want the fancypants addons. I do plan to go back to Rand McNally because I really digged the rugged look, the Dezl is just like your average Garmin car GPS system which makes me terrified to drop it inside of a truck!

Um, hey dude, is your steering wheel on the wrong side?

Not sure what Rand McNally you had but I have used all of them. I have had the 500,510,520,700,710 and the 720 and besides the fact that every GPS on the market requires a Internet connection to be updated none of the Rand McNally 's had to have an Internet connection just to do its job. Now they do need a traffic antenna and entered connection if you wanted LIVE traffic conditions but they all need they.
Since my current GPS gave up the Ghost. (Couldn't be the 3/4 million miles on it) I have been looking at Truckers Tablet . Company updated the Tablet hardware since I looked at them couple of years ago. The Navigation Software is designed for the trucking industry, you can edit vehicle, weight and size.

I have my settings as yall do and it does do us and interstate. Idk I only bought this damn thing as a mile counter. My internal gps seems to do a better job. Idk I hate these damn electronics.
