GPS Navigation for Truckers
| GPS, the ultimate in navigation and trip planning proficiency, appears to have been tailor-made for truckers. Drivers no longer need gloveboxes and dashboards full of assorted maps and atlases. Once you've used GPS, you'll wonder where it's been all your life.
As long as you have a clear view of the sky, the GPS receiver will operate. GPS devices receive a signal from a network of satellites orbiting the earth. With this information, they are able to determine your location. In addition, there's no monthly service to pay for like you have with satellite radio.

| GPS Vehicle Navigation Systems |
The following items are complete GPS navigation systems for your vehicle. Most of these types of systems can be either mounted to the windshield with a suction cup, or to a convenient place on the dashboard. Simply plug in and turn it on. Everything you'll need is installed in the unit...no downloading, additional software, or laptop is needed.

Note from
Jim Purcell - Trucker and Founder of Trucker Country:
First and foremost, my goal at Trucker Country is to help improve your quality of life, both in your job and on the road. That means finding the best products for the best prices. I could try to make a profit by offering products from other websites but I have found those sites' products to be priced too high.
With many products, Amazon is a perfect fit for the quality and affordability we all want. Google any of the products Trucker Country advertises and compare prices. You will see how overpriced many of the other retailers really are!
You also can buy many of these products at major truckstops across the country. I will admit that this is often the most convenient way for truckers to buy these products because you are there anyway and get to use it right away, and finding time to shop around at places without truck parking can be a challenge for many of us. However, you will pay on average 25-50% more for the convenience of truckstop shopping. I am not trying to slam all truckstops as they provide a valuable service, but we all know they often take advantage of truckers with their high prices and narrow variety of brands and products. It's just part of the life!
These days it is extremely safe to order from the advertisers Trucker Country includes on the site, and Amazon is one of the most trusted and reliable online retailers. We at Trucker Country purchase items online on a regular basis, including anything from CB radios, GPS and other electronics, gifts, medications, ...you name it!
I hope by offering you these products in this way, Trucker Country is giving you one more way to get ahead as you go down the road!
