+1 on the trucker's atlas
When I drove a rig, I had a TomTom GPS made for trucking but I still double checked with the atlas -- especially when I was in the northwest. I especially "liked" the time that the GPS tried to get me to go west on a two lane toward the 101 from I-5 that had a length restriction. Not to mention the atlas showing that there was also a length restriction north on the 101 too. I had to go farther north on I-5, cut over west on a different route, and then go south on the 101.
