    Rand McNally has announced an all-in-one dashboard device that combines robust truck navigation, an on-board SiriusXM radio, voice assistance, a built-in dash cam, and hands-free calling and texting. The OverDryve 8 Pro, part of Rand McNally’s OverDryve OS Connected Vehicle platform, is also e-log ready.

    The device, built specifically for professional drivers, brings together critical driving and business tools, in-cab entertainment, and hands-free safety features.

    With voice assistance, the OverDryve 8 Pro enables drivers to do more hands-free—including texting and calling. All of the audio from OverDryve 8 Pro can be played through a truck cab’s speakers.

     OverDryve 8 Pro comes with a built-in SiriusXM receiver, giving drivers access to SiriusXM’s programming bundle. Customers can contact SiriusXM to take advantage of the “Never Miss a Beat” offer, which gives them the first three months of its “All Access” subscription. This package includes a variety of commercial-free music, plus live sports, talk programming, and comedy. Subscribers also get access to SiriusXM programming outside the vehicle on an app and online at www.siriusxm.com.

    Features of OverDryve 8 Pro include:

    •A bright, 8-inch high-resolution screen that provides access to key items at a glance

    •Rand McNally truck-specific navigation and routing with truck POIs, advanced lane guidance, toll costs, warnings, and fuel logs

    •Hands-free calling and texting

    •Voice assistance

    •Audible news, weather, traffic and sports

    •Music from drivers’ favorite sources

    •A built-in dash camera

    •A clever, easy to install magnetic mount that makes attaching and removing the device a snap

    •A smart “slice” in the mount that provides an additional GPS receiver as well as a built-in SiriusXM radio

    OverDryve 8 Pro also comes pre-loaded with the Rand McNally DriverConnect logbook app, so it is ELD-ready.
