I've got the Garmin Dezl 7" marketed as an RV GPS. I tried out the Rand using their "app" of the same thing to an iPad, first. For me, the Garmin was a bit more understandable in operation, with more options allowing customization of the display.
After actual use (Minn to Maine and Minn to Calif/Oregon) I'm pretty happy with it. It is really a truckers GPS, so some of that shows through more than some may like. And like all GPS's, it gets a bit confused at times. Neither of the brands does a very good job of telling you why it is avoiding a particular route- although with the Garmin I was able to dig down and find out there was a low overpass a 100 miles ahead, etc. where I never did figure out how to do the same with the Rand. But it is not something you'll want to do while driving! They both seem to be about as good (and bad) as the other in warning you about RV obstructions coming at you - overpasses, propane, and road restrictions. Nice to have, but definitely not to be your only source of information!
