[QUOTE="Tough Guy, post: 1349909, member: 47811"] There's going to be other hurdles beside the mapping. Such as realizing what buildings are which address. The gps isn't always right either. Just today actually, I had an early am for some town I never go to, so I relied on the GPS, and where another driver "thought" it was. Well I ended up driving past it without realizing, as it was a business with no sign or visible name out front. The gps didn't realize that was the address, as it apparently had my "destination" as some vacant lot. but I realized something was wrong when I started passing numbers higher than the address i was looking for. So I had to find a place to turn around, do the walk of Shame and go in and ask if they were the business I was looking for. The moral of the story is that the GPS may help you get in a general vacinity of a stop but it's not always right and you can't bank on it 100% of the time. [/QUOTE]
