Ordinary Sat-Nav + some common sense. Lads have got this far with paper maps and directions wrote on napkins.....

^^^^^^
Is there not a system available called a Truck-Nav?
I've heard a few lorry driving friends mention it but I've never looked into it

You've never got stuck in a huge jam in England ! Truck nav can be a god send then as it's normally dark and your on back roads with no idea where you are

I have actually. I also grew up going with my father long before 'Drivers' needed a Truck-Nav.

There's no need. You're better off not relying on a sat-nav too much really, take more notice of what's going on around you (signs, names etc.)

Leave 'truck-nav' to the high-viz wearing beanos.
