Garmin Dezl. Truck GPS is not nearly as refined as Google maps. But they do have some nice truck specific features.

Rand McNally Motor Carriers' Road Atlas. Wouldn't leave home without it. Don't waste your money on the laminated version. Only rookies and suckers buy those.

My trucks are supplied with the Rand McNally atlas, the Omnitracs ELD, and now the Garmin dezl otr 1000, not that they really need it since they usually go to the same shippers/receivers. But they are prepared for changes.

I use the Garmin Dezl with the 7 inch screen and really like it. I run mostly OTR, but even if you or your drivers (if you have any) run the same routes all the time, road construction can send you into unfamiliar territory with low bridges and no thru trucks areas. My Garmin has helped a lot.
