[QUOTE="JL 0513, post: 1543921, member: 50088"] Not sure why anyone would buy a standalone GPS device these days when everyone has a smartphone. No cost to have the best map system, Google Maps. Paper maps take way too long to figure out your stops especially on Saturday air. First you have to go find the street in the street index list and then locate it in the corresponding block. All while reading tiny print all bunched together. And maps don't show addresses. This can waste lots of time on long roads where you don't know high and low ends. Using paper maps is like writing on stone tablets. Doesn't make much sense anymore. Tip: bring portable charger for your phone if concerned about battery life. [/QUOTE]
