Sat-Nav
Hi Guys
Just told my boss where he can stick his job,(full of promises and bull....and nothing ever changes). so thinking of going back on the wagons for a
while, 6 years ago i had maps for every part of the country(yes paper ones) but i am wondering if there i a decent sat-nav that you can program low
bridges and weight limits into.
Thanks
Rick

You will probably find that there is a POI file somewhere already - someone is bound to have already plotted all the HGV related trouble spots.

When thinking outside the box doesn't work any more, it's time to build a new box

I sell sat navs at work and there isn't one on the market afaik that does weight limits. You may have to go to a truck specialist?

As said above i dont think you can buy ne with these preset into them. You will need to add the poi's into them for this which are readily
available.
Tom toms are the best for poi's i think.
