It is not a sat nav, it is a machine that foreign firms send loading and unloading addresses to their drivers.
To save on phone bills.
Another bit of kit they use is a performance monitor of the truck.
The wife as one her side as she reckons I always go the wrong way Might be true, as I only use mine for traffic and speedcameras, I don’t need a satnav to tell me where to go
I’ve got 2, cos’ the other one’s being mended!
I have one that work supplied, they can also use it to track me and send me messages… Then I use my phone sat nav when I need it. So I have two screens.
I have my TomTom but alsomy phone in a hholderon the dash, the phone has my truck timer app running on it as I am on anologe tacho but occasionally I use Google maps or ordinance survey maps on my phone if in a remote area. The OS maps are great.
I’ve got 2. One is a truck specific one which goes to work with me, the other is an old car one that stays in my drawer at home, and which I’m loathed to throw away.
what’s a sat nat?
I’ve got my truck one and my car one as backup if I need it. Plus I do have my phone which is actually better at it than the SatNavs are.
