Topic:
TomTom launches the Trucker 6000 a 6" touch screen SatNav tailored specifically for HGV drivers. The Trucker 6000 has a special European map for trucks. This map helps you find the quickest and safest route for your vehicle type, size, weight, cargo and speed.
The Trucker 6000 also has the usual TomTom Live Traffic built in via an integrated GSM modem. The traffic is free for one year after which a subscription is required.
Priced at £319.99 it is available from the TomTom online store and other retailers. The Trucker is £20 more expensive than the equivalent non-truck version making it reasonably priced to avoid getting stuck in a lane suitable only for cars or reaching a bridge which is not possible to pass. The down side is that you do not get lifetime traffic and the Truck Maps only cover a selected number of countries in Europe. It is not clear if non-truck maps are included in the lifetime update offer.
