Mores Film 2020-11-09 New GPS Rand McNally OverDryve 8 Pro 2 vs Rand McNally TND 740
this video is not about using a new GPS or user manual, but rather my first impression! and what I don't like and I didn't even know what to press because they changed everything and it's hard to find anything! I just wanted to make a video about the first impression! I hope most of you also had the same problem before you surprised how to handle it!

Your killing us with the Funeral home music
You can use quick stops you just don't know how to find it. Add a stop>guided search>POI>then choose your option (my truck, a city, my route, or my destination)
I just bought it and I love it, I use my iPhone apps for truck stops and all the other stuff. I bought this GPS for what it’s meant to be, a navigation device for trucks
On the navigation map click the top right icon, click add stop, click 3 dots on top right and quick stops is on the bottom right.
The problem I have with the original OverDrive 8 Pro is that if I am running the GPS and SiriusXM at the same time after several hours(around 4 or more) the device will shut down as if it is overloaded. Then you wait a bit and restart it and ALL the apps have to reload which can take like 15-20 minutes. Now, if I am dependent on that GPS for my next stop and that stop is only 15 minutes away I'm screwed. Also, I am in Southern New England, not the Rockies and at times I still lose the SiriusXM signal. They say the magnet is strong and it is for guys trucking on straight roads in the relatively flat midwest(as compared to where I end up) but when I first got the device there were a couple times on I-95, I-84(thru Waterbury, CT especially) and I-91(between Northampton, MA and Brattleboro, VT) where the road was so rough that the device came loose and ended up on the floor. I made some placement adjustments to stop that but I am hoping that the new OverDrive Pro II -8 will be even stronger. Also the OverDrive 8 Pro was not compatible with Google Play which means no Google maps as a cross reference and no Google apps. I hope they have addressed that issue. There were a couple other minor things but that could have just been from me not knowing(or finding). In saying that I do like the OverDrive 8 Pro and would consider buying the Pro II once I've seen a couple real life reviews from truckers with a little more knowledge of these products than Mr Vitek.
It sounds to me that you were suckered into buying the GPS because the box was beautiful
