Garmin Dezl OTR710 Truck Navigator

Bought this after my dad purchased one. He pulls tanker and it’s very strict on what routes you can take. Very few times has either of ours messed up. It always takes me right to the destination. The only thing is addresses basically have to be spot on or it will say “address not found” or something like that but other then that it’s prefect definitely would recommend. I’ve also used ur on vacations and other places it works great in a car as well.

For being a gps this thing doesn't find way too many addresses. And they aren't even weird addresses, they're just normal business addresses that are on Google maps. -Updated to five stars because I can now send the gps addresses from my phone. It never worked before and then one day I tried again and it worked so that's been very helpful. I've had this garmin for almost two months now and I drive a semi truck so I put a lot of addresses into it. When it finds them it's great. I do make sure to keep it updated. This is my only complaint and the only reason for two stars.

You can make the argument that Rand McNally makes a GPS that is “just as good if not better.” I’ve used both, ran them side by side across the country. I, personally, would say the Rand McNally are just as good in regards to mapping. Only because they both are pretty good but both will also make mistakes. I did have some issues with the Rand McNally blacking out at random, and freezing up. Tech support was difficult to get hold of and I got the typical “did you try unplugging it and plugging it back in?” So I exchanged it and still had some issues and decided to stay with Garmin. What sets Garmin above others, in my opinion, is the quality/reliability of the product and their customer service. I had a unit go out on me after 5 years of constant use. When I called in (initially for tech support) I was greeted by an English speaking American. So much easier to communicate with each other the information needed to resolve the issue. When all was said and done, my old gps was toast but my new one was on my doorstep within just a couple days. Made in America, employing Americans and standing behind their product is what makes me a loyal Garmin customer.

Works well for truck drivers. Bought as a gift at Christmas and recipient happy with product. Easy set up

This is a good GPS. I would always choose Garmin over other brands. My old gps was also a Garmin which I have it to my nephew and he is still using it without any issues. My only problem with this one was it only shows truck stops/parking areas within 200-300 miles in the what’s ahead menu. This doesn’t help if you are driving 500-600 miles a day and you want to plan where you are going to sleep at night ones you start driving.

El Garmin Dezl OTR710 ha sido una herramienta indispensable para mi y mi esposo en nuestro trabajo.La pantalla táctil es clara y grande, perfecta para ver rutas sin distracciones. Lo mejor es que está diseñado específicamente para camiones, puedes ingresar el tamaño, peso y tipo de carga, y el GPS te da rutas seguras y legales, evitando puentes bajos o calles restringidas.También me encanta que muestra paradas para camiones, áreas de descanso, diesel y estaciones como Pilot y Love’s. Las alertas de tráfico y curvas peligrosas son súper útiles. Además, se conecta fácilmente al celular para actualizaciones en tiempo real. Muy recomendable para cualquier trucker que quiera viajar con seguridad y tranquilidad.Ademas lo puedes usar en tu carro si así lo deseas 100% recomendado.

Honestly wish I hadn't missed the return window, I'd be trying something else (bought this as it pairs with the Garmin ELD). Took me through a crowded residential neighborhood for no reason and put me right back on the street I was already on, then told me to enter the freeway when I'm driving in between a field and a public school. Have had several instances of terrible instructions (leading me down a dead end road for example). When it works, it's fine. When it doesn't, I'm calling it every name in the book. Also I'm not 100% sure it's the culprit, but pretty sure this thing is draining my battery like twice as much as normal. Buyer beware

It was hard to set up without a laptop. I had to use a laptop to update the devices software and to download the maps. Other than that, it’s really helpful. I like that you can call someone from your contacts on the GPS itself and even access music! Very modern calculator. Perfect for truckers and anyone who’s constantly on the road.
