I talked with a Rand McNally rep and she said the Intelliroute can optimize multiple point Hazmat routes, so I think I'll go with it—I like its interface and it has free updates that are mac compatible.

Yeah I called, but seeing as the software was not really gps I didn't ask about price. I might try one of their new gps models though, the 450 or 550. Link is here: PC Miler Navigator truck 430, 440, 450, 540,550, and PCM740 GPS system for truckers Here's a nice comparison of the major models...

Thanks for your opinion Turtle, the job I'm considering involves up to 6 hazmat stops a night, so I think the PC Miller's multiple route optimization is a nice plus. By the way, it seems to be offered in a lap top platform like Streets & Trips as well: PC*MILER|HazMat: ALK Technologies I'm...

Here are the most well known models: Best Truck GPS - GPS Truck Review It seems the PC Miller is the only one that can optimize a route, geez even MS Streets & Trips can do that! By the way, it gets bad reviews too :(

Geez, the RM 500 gets just as bad reviews on Amazon lol.

Thanks Chef, I might go with it, the Garmin 465t isn't really getting good reviews over at Amazon.

Answering my own question here, I think the Garmin 465T does multiple stop Hazmat routing. Garmin nuvi 465T Widescreen GPS Truck Navigator "Multiple-point Routing to calculate the most efficient route between multiple stops."

I see several models that have Hazmat routing, I'd like one that can do multiple stops, just wondering if anyone has any recommendations on this, thanks.

There is no justification for taking it from behind. QC is a money maker for both o/o and carrier when you find a convenient, fast load. I think it's bad business practice to overcharge for it, kinda disrespectful. The best place to split the money is at where the shipper is paying for the load.

The $40 Virgin Mobile plan doesn't include Canada. I was wondering if one could buy a pay as you go type thing with Virgin Mobile Canada for when one is there. That might work out. I'm still skeptical about Clear's coverage until I hear some testimonials of people who are using it in...

I was wondering about the map update cost on your 1450T, I know it's lifetime traffic but was wondering how much they charge you for periodic updates? Thanks.

Thanks, I'll check out the Clear service, but wanted to also mention Virgin's Mobile's new no contract plan. It's 3g at $40/mo. for unlimited usage, for both Mac and PC. Ovation MC760 (Virgin Mobile) Preview | PCMag.com Not sure about Canada with its coverage. I was wondering if anyone...

I've been trying to figure out which Garmin I might like. I'll look at the 1450T. Here is one "best of" site: GPS Reviews | Best GPS | Top 10 GPS There is a kind of comparison chart down the page here: Amazon.com: Garmin nüvi 1390/1390T 4.3-Inch Widescreen Bluetooth Portable GPS Navigator...
