Not sure how...but my nice reply to you vaporized! Ha...guess that was a sign to cut it short. LOL
I've been on the Beta-Test team for Garmin on the last few RV dedicated units. Currently, I'm using the 1095 and love it in the Vertical orientation.
NO gps (or app) is perfect, as we all know. However, in my years of experience with many different GPS units, apps, etc. it's just really hard to beat Garmins. With them being connected to my coach network, I've got constant road conditions, traffic, and weather along the route at all times.
I love using Trip Wizard for ALL my pre-planning, no matter how short or long the trip is. I'll review and plan, and then enter the routes into Garmin; it's really the best way to do it. Forget any other methods.
I'm a HUGE lover of Apple/iOS apps and have used them all. Again, for the best safety and specificity, Garmin is the best all-around choice. Doesn't mean I don't have one of the apps running as a secondary/backup, however.
Yeah, I disable ALL of those alerts, except for Crosswinds and Grades. Those alerts are buried in the driver notifications section.

Seriously, I love it except for the incessant dinging.
