I have had my TomTom GO for over two years and love it. Its basic compared with other newer TomTom's but has never let me down.
That is until last weekend when I was in the Lake district. We were in my mates Ford Ranger driving to a Scout Camp site near Newby Bridge and were taking the 'Fastest' route which involved some quite narrow roads. Anyway, we get to a point where the TomTom says go down a narrow dirt track which says 'No Through Road', we duly ignored the sign being in a 4×4 and after a couple of hundred yards come to a very narrow dead end – doh! 😳
We just about managed to turn around and the retraced our steps to the road and turned left. The Sat Nav recalculated and told us to continue and then take the first left. This was signposted as a 'Ford', this time we thought about it but also misread the height marker. We thought it said 1 foot but it must of said 2. Anyway, we went for it and although the Ranger struggled we got through (I think my Discovery may have coped a little better!) – phew! 😆
Not sure I will be taking my Sat Nav quite for granted again in the future!!
