  1. Hello

    I have been using a TomTom Go Live Camper and Caravan Sat Nav for the last 3 or 4 years and it was absolutely perfect for my needs as I would transfer the device from my car to my campervan and adjust the settings accordingly. I particularly liked the live traffic updates as they have saved me hours and hours of queuing in traffic jams. The device no longer works and I cannot find a TomTom replacement which does the same – either I can have the campervan option or I can have live traffic updates. Do you know of a device out there which will do both?
