GPSs that installed with little hassle and did not swivel or fall earned more points. Since truck GPSs come with various accessories designed to secure it to a vehicle’s windshield, we scored each one in our roundup on how well the accessories held together and whether or not they created a secure fit. We then tested its route planning by creating a path to a nearby location, taking note of which route it decided to take us on, stops it offered, and other driver-oriented features.
Each truck GPS was installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions. We used a 2014 Honda Civic SE sedan to test each of our best truck GPSs. Each truck GPS was given a rating out of 5 stars based on this criteria. A team member tested each product on a car, taking note of how easily the GPS was installed in our testing vehicle, the responsiveness of the GPS’s touch screen, its route planning capabilities, and any additional features the GPS offered. Our product testing team then ordered the five GPSs that best met these standards. We started by searching Amazon for top products, looking at factors like Prime shipping eligibility, customer ratings, Amazon superlatives, and prices.
The truck GPSs in this article went through two rounds of reviews.
