Try CoPilot GPS, available in an app for ipads or iphones, or android devices. All devices need built in GPS, but you do not have to have cellular service on them. We have used it while visiting every State in the continental US,and Alaska in the past 15+ years, using an ipad. Settings available for car or RV. Can also set height and propane restrictions. Maps are downloaded to your device, so after setting it up you do not need to use cellular data or wifi along the way. It does work better when trying to find POIs if you have some sort of data service available. My ipad does not have cellular service, but I can link it to my cell phone when I need data to find a certain POI.

I also suggest you look into RV Trip Wizard. While we don't use it for GPS it is great for trip planning providing mapping and distances from one stop to the next, with campgrounds, Elks Lodges, along with many other POIs needed by RVers.
