Large truck/trailer GPS apps

[Anti_Rice_Guy]

Do any of you know of or use a good app that routes for large/oversize/overly tall vehicles/trailers?

I've run into this problem at work a few times and am open to suggestions, be it redirecting a large truck to the parkway or issues with Parkway/Expressway in NY.

I have a pioneer avic 5200 nex and you can pick different vehicle profiles, like a bus or large truck. Don't know how well it works but it has height, width, length, and weight built into it that can be customized iirc.

VZ navigator has a commercial truck option. That helps us say off the parkways in NY.
