About this deal

Maps are nowhere near accurate, and I ended up using it, while it worked, for traffic updates and little else. Here you can enter your destination, look for local points of interest and change the display of the sat nav. The TomTom Trucker 600 is a dashboard-mounted GPS system optimized for the needs of the trucking industry. The Go 6000 comes preloaded with maps of the UK and Europe which are free to update for the lifetime of the product. TomTom hasn't limited the improvements to the Go 6000 to the hardware side of things either, as the interface has enjoyed a significant overhaul.

The Trucker has a simple snap-mount system, enabling it to be quickly and easily placed anywhere convenient.If we do have any genuine criticisms of the TomTom Go 6000, it's with the construction of the unit, or rather TomTom's choice of materials. You will still receive access to your active TomTom Traffic and TomTom Speed Camera Subscriptions as they are assigned directly to your device. In the bottom right hand corner there's the main menu button, which takes you to a similarly paired-down screen. Additionally, the route can be programmed at a central office or at the driver’s point of departure, and then uploaded to the GPS wirelessly upon the start of the trip. There are quite a few voices included as standard, although the computerised voice gives you the most information as it can read out street names as you go - useful in built up areas - although some of the pronunciations can be a little off.

The new mounting system is solid, yet it's easy to remove the sat nav from its cradle if you need to.Worked good, never sent me into a bridge or restricted road just bad graphics and didn’t like using all my data. Resetting the device helps if your device stops responding, can't find a GPS signal, or if it doesn't start up correctly. Entering destination information was intuitive, with plenty of scope for finding places either by entering postcodes, towns and street name or by interacting directly with the responsive maps.

This new mechanism allows you to easily pop the sat nav off the mount, and enter your destination or change the settings comfortably in the palm of your hand before popping it back into place so that it could navigate you to your destination. Speaking of which, we would have preferred hardware volume controls compared to having to go to the menu screen to alter the volume levels. The first time you insert a new memory card in your navigation device, you are asked if you want the device to format the memory card.In use we found the TomTom Go 6000 performed very well - with a good choice of routes and accurate journey times, thanks in no small part to the TomTom Traffic data.
