Geee , what is wrong with the old fashioned ATLAS . I have one of them and it does not need a power cord or batterys to use it . In my 60 years of driving big and small it has taken me many place along with the SCALES and low underpasses book . While hauling the big ugly stuff The states usually gave you routings . BUT sometimes the states would screw up big time . Pa sent me to a 10 ton road that to start off with got me hug up on a hill and lets not for get that oh a ten ton road with like six ten ton bridges and i am only 168000 Lbs , The W. Va sent me to a 14 foot under pass while i am 14 foot 5 inches tall , N.C sent me to a 12 foot wide lane restriction on a bridge when i was eleven foot eleven and three quarters wide And every one of them routes were done on the COMPUTER. Ohio sends me on a grand tour of the northern half of the state to just cross 2/3rds of the state that took a day and a half to do when had they let me run it the way we asked i could have been across the state in 3 and 1/2 hours BUT NO you are going to do it this way and the vary next load that was Bigger heavier and just as wide they ran me the way i wanted to go the first time . The first time i was going out to see and old friend in Mo. i sat down and played the Goggel thing and there way of getting there and just like the Ohio load it was going to be a sight seeing trip of 796. what ever miles and almost 16 hours Open atlas look at point A look at Point B draw line read routes write down route numbers , get in truck and head west .627.4 miles later and a little over 11 hours i am in her drive. Only screw up was going thru Peoria , found better route coming home cut 7 miles off and .hour and a half off the drive.

Today's Featured Article - The Day Mom Drove the 8N - by Brian Browning. My Dad was wanting to put in a garden but couldn't operate the 8N and handle the old horse drawn plow he had found and rigged up to use with the tractor. Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day.
