JohnP Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Can recommend Nuvi 2699LMT-D. With 6inch screen will do all what you ask with lifetime map update and Traffic. You will have to use Garmins Basecamp programme (free) to plot routes on computer and then download to sat nav. If you have the old Mapsource prog. it will also work for route planning. Loading POI is easy using Garmins POI loader programme. This is the best sat nav I have had and with the large screen much easier to read in M/H. Shop around for best price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nige118 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Hiya Tony I brought my satnav off ebay the guys user name is UK-trucknav the guy is a lorry driver himself and you put your vehicle dimensions in and it plans the route without going down narrow lanes. I paid £85.00 but I think he is selling them even cheaper now. I've had mine over 12 months and can't fault it. The guy even gives you his contract details and will help you if you need assistance. I've had Tomtoms for years but these are much better and cheaper. Hope this helps. Happy Days. :-D :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nige118 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Hiya Tony I've just looked on his advert and 5" screen is £55.99 and 7" screen is £69.99 or best offer. Can't beat that mate. Including all leads and boxed. :-D :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
