Rand McNally's OverDryve 8 Pro II features a new design that is three times faster than the first-generation devices, according to a statement from the company. Routing on the new OverDryve Pro is powered by Rand Navigation 2.0, the company’s proprietary navigation system that debuted earlier this year.
The newest iteration of the OverDryve 8 Pro is an all-in-one truck GPS, tablet, dashcam, and satellite radio. Other innovations include a fully adjustable built-in dashcam, which can be moved and positioned to record an optimal view, and a stronger magnetic mount, which enables a quick and easy snap-in and snap-out of the device yet holds the unit more firmly when mounted.
