This review is from: Garmin dezl 560LMT 5-Inch Widescreen Bluetooth Portable Trucking GPS Navigator with Lifetime Map & Traffic Updates (Electronics)
I'm on my third truck GPS in two weeks. First was the new Cobra 7" model...I returned it within 2 hours. The touch screen was terrible, I constantly had to punch the the screen multiple times before it would accept an entry and often times it would take the wrong letter/button, and I don't mean the next closest one, sometime it would enter a key 2" from where I touched the screen. Also of the 3 routes I tried entering, only 1 was correct, one was illegal for hazmat, and the other one went way out of the way for no reason that I could see. I returned it and got what I know.
I've had a Garmin Nuvi for years and love it, but it was not made for trucks. I tried the Dezl. Typical of Garmin, it had an excellent touch screen and display. The base maps were able to find most address I entered, but not all. The biggest issue was with truck specific points and routes. I recently moved from PA to CO and took a job hauling gasoline. Therefore I needed a gps capable of finding many small gas stations, and routing me to them via legal Hazmat routes. This is where the Garmin FAILED!!! Though I had class 3 flammable liquid selected I my truck profile, it consistently routed me to roads that I knew to be illegal, worst of all it routed me through Eisenhower tunnel anytime I had to cross the mountains. It also had at least 3 low bridges marked in the wrong locations within Denver. The final straw was when it routed me straight through a small town that I later learned could have gotten me a $1000 ticket. I simply cannot afford to have a GPS that I can't trust. Garmin's hardware and base map are excellent. But their truck specific points/routes simply aren't mature yet.
I returned the 5" Garmin and walked out with the 7" Rand Macnally 710 for the same price. So far it's routing has been spot on. I'm still used to the Garmin interface, but the RM if fairly Intuitive. According to the cashier at Pilot, they've had the least number of returns from the Rand Mcnallys.
The Garmin is more polished and comes with the traffic antenna cord, which did work well although you have to put up with ads popping up every so often, but I just can't trust it's truck data. So far the Rand seems like the most accurate although I'm going to have dishout out another $80 if I want live traffic. Although if I understand correctly, its not ad supported.

Just my 2 cents...
