Have downloaded the app as backup.to my Ohrex Satnav for the impending trip to France.

Checking our first day route the difference between timings is staggering.

Both systems set up for the dimensions of the MoHo.

Ohrex six hours to site. Road Lords 4 hours....

How accurate is Road Lords. Looking closer at the route I'd does show height limits...

If it is accurate, it looks as though the Ohrex is wrong by a large margin.
 
Ive done a heck of a lot of driving through France ( im here now) low bridges on main routes are very rare. I suggest you get a Michelin grand Itinaires map for a fiver off Amazon, plan your route and then use your satnav as a crib and to find the final bit. Good thing about map is it highlights toll roads so you can take a considered view.

I know you can set your gps to avoid tolls but this probably is the surest way to end up in front of an unwanted obstacle.

I have Road Lords also, it's timings are reasonable accurate for M/H use. However, it can be irritatingly slow with directions, and they can change midway round a roundabout, or, give spoken directions for one route, whilst displaying another route !!
Back to the very slightly.less aggravating Aguri for now.

I ask as it seems to make odd choices. Unless the right loop from Eurotunnel in Coquelles onto the A16 is closed the route I planned for tomorrow looks odd...

Why go left one junction then do a 360 and come back?

It does say 20min slower. Unless it's to obtain a ticket, no idea, I've not used that route, but google earth certainly shows a right hand sweep straight onto the A16!!

I believe Road Lords is a Sygic based app. I'm at the point of dumping Sygic and going back to a 'cheap chinese' satnav as over the past year I've found Sygic route planning to be a bit iffy in its choice of routes.

I know some will disagree, but that's my experience.
