Updated October 26th, 2009 The Garmin nuvi 465T, the first dual Truck+Car GPS System has been out for some time now and we are beginning to get some interesting user feedback in the forums.
Some are impressed by the convenience of the 465 when driving with their RV, but other comments indicate that the intricate truck settings may not be well reflected on the road. I saw a nuvi 465 at the Navteq Navivision event and noted it used the nuvi 255w hardware and had the "trip" icon on the main menu, a first for a nuvi. You can use the NGarmin Nuvi 465 - Truck + Car Guidance topic in the "Garmin nüvi forums" to discuss.

This is where Garmin come in with their nuvi 465t announced at the Mid America Truck Show. While it keeps the familiar form factor of Garmin's widescreen mobile systems, the 465T adds road restrictions such as height, width, length, weight and hazardous materials to compute specific truck routes...
... It should be available in the second quarter of 2009 at an MSRP of $500. You can use the [NEWS] Nuvi 465T for truckers announced topic in the "Garmin nüvi forums" to discuss.
Posted April 5th, 2006 - While GPS assisted road navigation for cars has been available on mobile platforms since late 2001, there was yet to be software factoring in restrictions applicable to oversized vehicles or vehicles carrying hazardous materials......, this is where ALK's "CoPilot Truck| Mobile" for Smartphones and PocketPCs comes in.
