Hi all. I’ve got a job interview tomorrow. If all goes well then it will be the first lorry job I’ve had. Is there a really good sat nav to buy or maybe even a sat nav android app for lorries that shows bridge heights, weight restrictions and the extras that come with it.
Thanks in advance!

villa can you explain why you say that CoPilot app is crap? You are suggesting here that the TomTom 550 which is twice as expensive and is no longer being made as the new models have superseded it. You have no experience of it yourself otherwise you wouldn’t make this silly assumption or have bought the Tomtom 550. Just because you have it doesn’t make it better or make CoPilot a piece of crap. You bought it on price only, well from that basis alone it still isn’t good value compared with CoPilot. If I said Volvo is ■■■■ because I drive a DAF it really doesn’t hold much water does it now.
If you cant stretch to co pilot aponia is a good and cheeper alternative and again works on all platforms
The two drivers…
I met in Italy who had driven from Iran or Iraq (or some other godforsaken barren desert of a country) to Rome. They had the address and some directions written on a piece of A4 paper. That was it!
to be fair though they might still be wandering around italy to this day for all i know

A friend of mine doesn’t have a computer or the internet, he hand writes all letters and reads newspapers.

I’ll have to ask my butler what (if any) device he uses.

Ask at the interview if your lorry will have a sat nav build in. If not, laugh, and tell them to shove the job up their back entrance. Just because you are new to the job doesn’t mean you have to bring your own satnav.
Next they’ll expect you to bring your own fridge…
That’s how not to get. Job most fleets don’t have them fitted. It doesn’t have to be a massive outlay. How many fleets don’t fit fridges to trucks

Do these come with live traffic updates 
Can you read them in the dark when you’re driving
Will they fit comfortably into a daybag

No I am not paid by CoPilot, is it wrong of me that I defend it by someone simply saying its a piece of crap with no real argument? The question was asked and I answered. No ulterior motive there other than trying to give an honest opinion. Oh and yes I do love it. I have tried and used other sat navs for years as well as using maps before satnavs were available, in comparison to them all I love CoPilot.
