First year with our Motorhome and loving it. The only stress we have is in journeys and trying to avoid sharp corners and narrow roads. We have thought about buying a Sat Nav specifically for motorhome / caravans but are seeing mixed reviews. 
We tried downloading CoPilot but it directed us down roads not suitable for over 7.5 tonne. As my husband said, technically passable for our Motorhome but do we need the stress of it,

I looked at reviews Of Aguri Sat Nav and Tom Toms and both say they have the same flaws - i.e. take you down very narrow lanes. 

Can anyone provide some recommendations.

 I have to say that it does pay to check the route you want to follow against that suggested by a sat nav.

This then enables us to chose motorways over A roads, A roads over B roads and hopefully ignore white roads on the map.

The journey may be longer by 200 yards or so but the driver's equilibrium is usually undisturbed. (or should that be unperturbed?)
