As part of its goal to provide the most innovative routing and navigation products for professional drivers, Rand McNally launched the IntelliRoute TND 700, a new truck GPS device with a 7-in. state-of-the-art high-definition screen and enhanced software features, the company said.
This new device provides greater mapping detail at each zoom level, a larger viewing screen, additional trucker business tools, enhanced features and 363,000 data updates.
The IntelliRoute TND 700, like the CES award-winning IntelliRoute TND 500 unit launched last year, was developed from the ground up for professional truck drivers. Tested extensively by professional drivers on the road, the IntelliRoute TND 700 unit includes louder-than-normal speakers, custom designed mounting features such as an oversized suction cup and extra-long cable, as well as a suite of specialized Trucker Business Tools to assist drivers in managing the business aspects of trucking, according to Rand McNally.
Enhancements to current features include access to POIs, such as truck stops, rest areas and retail locations, with just a few clicks. Advance notification is now available for Norpass and Prepass availability at weigh stations. Border crossings can be pre-set to prohibit routing across country borders. Multi-stop routing has been improved to include on-the-fly vias and additional stopovers.
The IntelliRoute TND 700 is “Trucker tested. Trucker approved,” the company said. It has a suggested retail price of $499 and will be available at truck stops nationwide.
