Just got my CDL a few weeks ago. I finished team driving with my trainer and now I'm in my own truck as of this week. I bought an atlas and I'm using it during trip planning. My only problem is literally where do you store the thing? It's quite large so it doesn't fit in most places but it keeps dive bombing at me during traffic whenever I put it in a more accessible location. My trainer never used hers so it was buried under the bunk somewhere and I only saw it once. We always relied on the GPS to be right and it got us into trouble on a few different occasions in the eight or so weeks I was on her truck.
Rainy I know you talk about using yours. Perhaps you have some tips?
