Does anybody know of a good sat nav to use when towing a caravan because?
112 asked:
i was towing my caravan home and the sat nav in its great wisdom took me through the penrith hills at 1903ft. not a good idea at all.
So is there any sat navs out there that can avoid steep hills etc.or is it better to plan with a normal map and use the sat nav as a back up.

Try Garmion Nuvi 600. Has an option to stick to main roads only.
tom tom you ask it find the shortest route and you can programme it to avoid certain things such as the penrith hills
Your latter point was right…use a map to plan the route and then tell the Sat Nav to go from A to B via C,D,E etc.
Haven’t found one you can programme to avoid hills, narrow roads etc..which is why coaches keep getting stuck.
better still do us all a favour and ditch the caravan.
Plan with the good old fashioned map, or try Google maps.
The best sat-nav I have come across is TOM TOM.
Hope this helps
