The Garmin dezl OTR800 8-inch GPS Truck Navigator features an eight-inch touchscreen and displays information in either landscape or portrait mode. In some areas, you can enter a rig’s height, length, width, and weight to locate routes that are better suited for trucks and their loads. The device also features routes that are popular among truckers as well as load-to-dock guidance, which displays loading zones and storage lots. This truck-centered GPS also points out truck-friendly parking areas and rest stops through its Truck & Trailer Services directory and issues alerts regarding bridge heights, sharp curves, and steep grades. Users like having the arrival time, distance to stops, and other information at a glance. There are several mounting options, wireless updates, and a voice assistant to promote hands-free driving.
