Truck Drivers and RV Owners Are Getting GPS Systems Just For Them

GPS for trucks are becoming more available and it's about time.

If any sector of the marketplace was in need of GPS navigational systems it is the trucking industry. Yet this truckers GPS potential market seems to have been ignored by the GPS manufacturers or at least until now. It's like someone turned on the light as there are now some really useful truck GPS systems coming on the market. Not only are these useful for truckers but they are also a great aide to RV owners as with a GPS for RV many of the requirements are the same.

These new trucker GPS units aren't just maps showing the route to a particular destination, but rather allow the vehicle driver to input critical data about the vehicle and its' load. For instance, the driver can input the length, width, weight and height of the load. In addition, most truckers GPS systems allow the trucker to input the Hazmat level of the load. All this information is taken into consideration when creating the route. Restricted roads show up on the map and are avoided by the routing system. In addition, many of the new truck GPS units warn of high winds, steep inclines, hazardous  turns and more. All these are extremely important to the driver and can save time and fuel.

For truckers making deliveries, there are systems that allow the driver to enter the addresses of all his stops and then the GPS will create the most efficient route for the driver to take, saving him valuable time and allowing the most efficient  use of the vehicle.

Like many auto GPS systems, many of the new trucker GPS units have traffic alert capability enabling the driver to avoid expensive traffic tie-ups and get there on time. In the trucking industry "time is money" is really true and these new units go a long way to help the drivers and their companies save both.
