Best Trucks with GPS Navigation for 2025
These are the best trucks with GPS Navigation based on iSeeCars' analysis of each vehicle’s reliability, resale value and safety.
The best midsize truck with GPS navigation is the Honda Ridgeline (9.2 / 10 iSeeCars score), with the Ford F-150 being the best full-size truck with GPS navigation (8.8 / 10 iSeeCars score).
Truck navigation has come a long way from the days of Rand McNally maps stuffed in the sun visor. Today’s truck drivers can leverage a wide array of truck GPS devices that offer real-time positioning and specific truck routing, whether they are driving a large commercial truck or a smaller full-size or midsize pickup. The best truck GPS devices go beyond GPS navigation and provide information related to weigh stations, gas stations, bridge heights, rest areas, truck stops, and other truck specific points of interest.
While a wide array of aftermarket GPS units are available for long-haul semi truck drivers, iSeeCars has identified the best truck GPS navigation systems offered in light-duty models like the Chevrolet Silverado, Ford-150, Ram 1500 and Toyota Tundra. These trucks now offer standard high-resolution touchscreens and smartphone streaming through either wired or wireless Bluetooth connectivity. Both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto feature Apple and Google map-based guidance with turn-by-turn directions and real-time traffic updates.
But there’s an argument to be made that all drivers, including truckers, benefit from native GPS navigation systems that are built into the vehicle. Today’s truck GPS navigation systems offer the same level of live traffic information and real-time traffic alert notifications, live fuel prices, ongoing map updates (through their built-in Wi-Fi connections), and ever-larger screen sizes with helpful map overlays, such as speed limit, rest stop, or fuel price information.
Listed below are the best trucks with GPS systems built in. These native navigation apps offer best route and voice assistant guidance without requiring a paired GPS navigation device like a smartphone or Rand McNally TND. The trucks are organized by size and ranked by their iSeeCars quality score, which takes reliability, resale value, and safety into consideration. Use these lists to confirm which models rank the best when combining overall truck driving needs with trucker GPS guidance.
How We Rank These Cars
The Best Cars with GPS Navigation list ranks vehicles by their iSeeCars Score, which is based on our proprietary assessment of a vehicle’s reliability, resale value and safety (based on ratings from IIHS and NHTSA). The GPS Navigation feature is available either standard or optional on these cars.
The iSeeCars Score is an analysis of three factors: reliability, resale value and safety. It is calculated based on the latest research and analysis by our data science team. The data analysis comes from over 12 million new and used vehicles in our Longest-Lasting Cars and 5-Year Depreciation Studies, combined with NHTSA and IIHS Safety Ratings.
Vehicles are scored in three categories:
Reliability
The reliability score represents an analysis of iSeeCars' proprietary research on the longest-lasting vehicles.
Value Retention
The value retention score is based on our data science team's statistical analysis and prediction of 5-year depreciation from MSRP to determine which cars hold their value best, using US Bureau of Labor Statistics data to adjust for inflation.
Safety
The safety score is calculated based on the last five years of crash test ratings from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and incorporates the latest Top Safety Pick information from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).
