Default gps for rv's

hey all

just wondering if on your travels anyone has come across a gps which is suitable for rv's/trucks i.e. one which avoids low bridges and weight limtied roads.
an elderly lady i work with is retiring soon and is going on a around australia trip in a rather high rv and asked me today if a gps is available for this purpose.

i have seen a binetone carrera with this feature but they offer poor reliability.

cheers

i have a kogan unit and it allows settings for pedestrians, bikes, motorbikes, cars and trucks. im not sure what the differences are as ive never been through them all..

it is a great unit at a great price, i would reccomend it as it has so many features (mp3, photo album etc)the only downside is that it dosent know the difference between dirt and tarred roads. i compared it with a navman and i think the kogan was better and at about a third of the price..
