Recently, Garmin introduced a new assortment of products to the trucking industry with next-generation dēzl OTR navigators and premium trucking headsets. This continues the company’s long-standing mission to make life easier for over-the-road drivers. There are many things to account for on a typical haul, so having tools with the most innovative technology and unwavering reliability are essential to the success of every journey.
dēzl OTR navigators
As a professional truck driver, you have a unique perspective of traveling across the country. From the mom-and-pop diner to your favorite truck stop, to the difficult-to- reach loading dock you use, the knowledge you’ve gained is invaluable. Now you have the power to share this knowledge with the rest of the dēzl™ trucking community with the all-new dēzl OTR series from Garmin.
As part of the dēzl Community of professional truck drivers, you can easily find the best-rated available truck parking along your route and rate your experience to share with the community. You can also find where trucks prefer to go by searching for nearby community-shared loading docks, security gates and truck entrances associated with your destination. A new wind speed weather overlay on the map shows potentially hazardous conditions and alerts when there are high winds detected on your route. Combine that with Garmin’s trusted trucking navigation, which includes custom routing, high-resolution imagery of destinations and an all-new CAT Scale locator and you have the complete package.
The new dēzl navigators feature vibrant, high-resolution touchscreens ranging from 6-, 7-, 8- or extra-large 10-inch display options. Garmin also introduced a version with a built-in dash cam, the dēzlCam OTR725, if you want a discreet eyewitness that can record incidents on the road in high-definition and provide you with video proof of what happened.
dēzl Headsets
Purpose-built for the long haul, Garmin’s premium, next-gen trucking headsets are designed with ultra-long battery life and all-day comfort. They can support up to 60 hours of continuous Bluetooth talk time and offer excellent audio clarity with active noise cancellation (ANC) and an all-new LED flashlight. The flashlight provides amazing utility both inside and outside your rig and truly sets these headsets apart from any others.
If you’ve ever dropped something in your cab or had to stop in a poorly lit parking lot, you know the importance of being able to illuminate the area around you. The LED flashlight on the dēzl Headset 110/210 series is built into the boom mic and can cycle through red, white, and extra-bright white options to help support a safe and more convenient experience.
For the best experience, you can easily pair the a dēzl headset with a dēzl OTR navigator to hear navigation prompts seamlessly through your audio stream and control the navigation by speaking into the headset’s boom mic.
The headsets also give you versatility with an option for a classic single-ear construction or a 2-in-1 design that can quickly convert to fully immersive stereo headphones when you’re on a break. No extra tools or hardware required.
