    Rand McNally TND 720 LM IntelliRoute Truck GPS with Lifetime Maps (Discontinued by Manufacturer)

    • This unit makes routing simple and easy,,,, unlike the competitor it will located fuel stops, parking ect along your route of travel.
    • it routes you on some very strange routes and some are not very truck friendly. with use and more knowledge it would be ok
    • It will often plot a route many miles out of the way to avoid going through a city when there are no restrictions.
    • and you can plot your own route by picking towns on the route you want to go but not worth the money as ive had alot of problems with freezing and
    • Google Maps on my phone helps to stay on correct route
    • To my amazement and total disappointment the routing is terrible
    • Im a new driver and it has saved me from getting lost, it gets to to rest areas and truck stops without a problem, if you miss your turn it starts re routing on its own
    • Make an app already where truckers can give real time feed back on bad routes and such
    • The standard routing is adequate for 95% of all commercial needs
    • Don't trust the fastest and shortest routes
    • Compared to my Garmin 465t and 560 dezl this product is a dream come true, it has much more accurate maps, speed limits are by far more accurate, road restrictions are spot on, routing is a far sight better than either Garmin, and the truck services info (poi's) are accurate and easy to work with
    • It routed me numerous times down the wrong routes (a few times down the wrong road
    • routing is bad it goes off the main route for instance, I'm going west on route 9 in Framingham MA and it tells me to take a left 1/2 milebefore I-90 which is a right entrance,then it comes on and says the road it told me to take a left
    • It gives the absolutely most inefficient routes without fail and regularly changes routes for no apparent reason only to return to the original route seconds later.
    • The routing was very good
    • Many truck stops have been closed, moved, or rebranded (ie Wilco-Hess -> Pilot, etc), and Walmart parking data is often wrong.- Doesn't route around traffic unless it's within 30 miles of when you first started your route (therefore useless for a truck driver).- Reports several routes as truck weight-restricted, despite not being the case- Map data is over a year old now, is increasingly missing entire highways in Missouri, Ohio, Indiana, Alabama, and Kentucky, to name a few.
    • Namely Driver logs, Fastest and Shortest routes, and Trails
    • but it more than makes up for it in accuracy and features such as fast routing, the poi's, Tell Rand, and the wifi
    • The only thing more sublime is being subjected to the litany of "sharp curve ahead" warnings throughout your 2 mile "smart route".
    • it flagged a no legal route available.
    • Don't trust the fastest and shortest routes
    • Works good and meets my expectations, but can get off on a side route for the sake being the shortest route but not necessarily being the best route
    • Had I followed this route, safe to say, I fixin to get a pink slip.
    • it's too slow and gives me really bad routes
    • very slow ad gave me the worst routes ever
    • It's not quite like a cockpit, but has a ton more info than most GPS units, including things like elevation, and an ability to tell Rand if there's construction somewhere, or traffic, or a weight limit for trucks, plus an ability to track your gas mileage, your favorite routes, whether you've driven more than the allowed # of hours (per DOT regulations), a calculator, a notepad functionality, and a few more things that are honestly just overkill if you're not a truck
    • As always, plot your route, read every sign.
    • Sometimes shows the fastest route is shorter than the the shortest route
    • You can adjust the route from fastest and shortest route
    • According to this stupid thing, every bridge is low and every route is restricted
    • This item is being used by my son to keep him on the proper truck route
    • This gps has terrible routing through NYC even on the interstates
