It does however get confused at times and will tell you that a location is on the left when it is really on the right(like this morning). Other then that, the truck option does keep you on truck routes unless you customer is off of one, then it will run you however it can to get you there.

Trucker GPS
It is odd that no one mentioned Co-Pilot, it is relatively expensive, around $400 for the newest version but uses pc miler which is the same system that a lot of the big companies use to route their trucks. It runs on your laptop and does truck route, hazmat route, 53'ft routes, fuel stops, truckstops, cat scales, etc etc. I have used it for nearly 4 years with only a few times where it was "wrong".
