Thanks Chris😊

Great video, thanks 👍👍

Brilliant not started driving yet but this will stay with me once i start 👍

Fantastic Chris.ime grateful for this video you have made it very clear

Do you have to connect with your data telephone Life traffic and speed camera alert

You are good mate continue watching. You are good keep that way

I have bought this GO EXPERT 7". There were many disappointments with it. It finds almost nothing. Like Google map there are many companies but it is not possible to search for a company on TomTom. As well as famous places it does not find, but when put in Lattetud and Longetud and the name is on the map - why can't you search that place then? One thing why I wanted TomTom was for environmental zones! But when I put in weight and size and that it's a motorhome, it puts out ecozones that affect Trucks and Buses but not Car class 2 which is mine. So these ecozones it shows are unusable. Are the ecozones any that concern me? I don't know. Also I had to search quite a bit before I found how to set the sound volume. The natural thing was to point to the sound icon and then a volume sound slide would come up, but no, you have to go down into Settings and look around. How stupid if you want to, for example, quickly turn down the sound. I had waited me that you could run on a satellite image, but it's only the cartoon map. Many car parks for mobile homes are also missing from the map. With that price, you would have expected something good, but it turned out to be a very primitive navigator that doesn't do much good.

Going through this at the moment. Felt like an utter failure last week on first go. Doesn’t help with trainer shouting at you

Thanks for this. Few days in, only had to do this way once and made a pigs ear of it, rest of the time ive been able to do like you said, go through the bays and straighten up and reverse back. Im feeling more confident in things now tho, as they say, practice makes perfect. And you're right about when learning, all they teach you is how to drive on the roads, apart from the reverse and coupling. I asked my instructor if we can do some bay reversing, his response was, "no point, you will get taught then when you get a job" Well, ive got a job and had little teaching, two nights out with a fella who helped and gave me some pointers, now im out on my own. He did say i can rock up to the yard early before i start and have some practice. Really enjoying it tho, out again tonight, yard ive been to a couple of times, nice bunch, last drop of the night, might ask if i can go down a bit to some empty bays and have a sod about, im sure they will be ok.

Tom Tom is terrible don’t buy that navigation !! I use to love TomTom and it was the best nav for me because of the simplicity and design of menu, but they really gone bad because they don’t have user support and they don’t listen to their customers, they really doesn’t care what you think ! On new models you need to pay for everything, and you need to have speed camera subscription, but that doesn’t matter because for example in Germany is forbbiden by law to use that option so you can’t see where the speeding camera is so you always getting tickets for speeding (for 5km/h over you get around 50-60€ and all over Germany for trucks max speed is 80km/h and nobody is driving 80km/h so you are always getting tickets which is crazy, German laws are crazy, they wanna ripp you and TomTom is letting them do it) so it is useless to have subscription for speed cameras at least for me and now because of that reason and many others i will change my navigation system to Garmin !! And so much more is bad with TomTom i don’t want to get into all of that ! TomTom is really bad and don’t buy it…i would reccomend Garmin it is much much better navigation and more professional…

Sure wished I could get a free book (especially PDF or download) I graduated from Trucking School at the end of October & have struggled ever since. I have my CDL A with a tanker endorsement

Recently bought one of them but does someone know why it doesn't show lane guidance on the roundabouts.

Great video trying to build my confidence up. Passed my test last December trying to brush up for assessments

Thank you so much ❤

Good solid clear review, thanks

My favourited map send it to me

Sorry, what you mean by jack knife? ty

Hi Chris, thank you for the content, i'm 52, from the UK and always wanted to be a Lorry or Bus driver but for loads of reasons didn't take it up, mainly because I had a mortgage at the age of 21 and driving jobs didn't pay well back then. Is it worth my while persuing it now at my time of life? I currently have a one man band business supplying Office Stationery and Rubber Stamps online via eBay, Etsy etc. but it isn't going so well recently 😞 A couple of years ago I got my CPC and Drivers Card for 7.5t work but nobody will give me a chance as I haven't got one years experience! I feel like I am stuck in a loop.

Chris great video as always!! but when you say keep chasing that trailer at what position is the steering when and what are you steering to

Sound advice for new drivers like myself. Thank you.

Shame it doesn't support hands free calls and messages

Brilliant how do we know when to stop

Helpful video thanks

Great video and explanation, makes it all clear. Thanks.

Hi Chris. Can it be set to voice alert you if i was speeding in general on any road and not just when close to speed cameras?

Respect!🫡

If you have a problem, it’s virtually impossible to contact TomTom, their support is none existent. They get 90% one star in reviews.

I have been to many TESCO RDC And only tip I can give u is to avoid them like the plague

Lovin the drawings too. But seriously the explanation of the middle wheels as pivot point just made this kinda click in my mind. Thanks bro. Im newish to drivin class 1s and this defo helps

Something we check. I think u might find useful is a fifth wheel check and raises and lowers ok

Cheers Buddy. Just got one today so hoping it makes life a lot easier. Thank you. 👍

Well done boss

I like trucks to

that video saved me on my 1st reversing on a bay

I like your video, but the decoration on your window obscures the view with the camera at this angle.

Does anyone know if you can play this through your earpiece?

Excellent well done you. Very simple to understand

But no pouch to put it in😡I got same model

I got old scania but can't find the cap to fuel up screen wash, should be out of engine?

Great review..compared to one watched previously

Hello, you made this video a year ago, can you update it like: errors send you narrow roads, bridges ..

I used to drive for a Spanish company in Malaga pulling tilts to Calais return as a O/D. My FH16 700 was the best truck I ever had, 44t++ on the gradients in top gear at 100kph. It was a big step up from my previous FH13 500. I miss driving trucks but its now become a rat race to the bottom..

Is it your favorite navigator at the current time? Or is there some other that you prefer?

Thank you for a good review.

Greetings from the US! I drive a Peterbilt and the way I like to think about it is pushing a wheel barrel. But when you have to react quick its back of the trailer moves opposite if the steering wheel, front of the trailer goes the same way as the wheel. Just with those 3 things you should be able to park anyway you need.

Wonder what that refo was then 🤔

Congratulations in having the Union Flag correctly mounted behind you.

Hope you are doing well? Will you be uploading more videos? I really love them. Thank you.

Chris as a rule if you're going into bay 4, how many bays further on would you be stopping to start reversing so the trailer has cleared past bay 4, would you drive to like bay 9 or 10 for example then put the bend on? Thanks

Best review I've seen for the tom tom 7 thanks mate
