I have only had three experiences with GPS units. One was in my son's car.
It only concerned about a 10 mile drive up the Interstate and we already
knew where the destination was and could have done it without the GPS. It
did, however, give the correctinstructions. The other two involved GPS
units in other peoples' cars (Healeys) during Healey events. Being advised
to "follow me. I have GPS", their units could not get us to the desired
destinations.
So far, a AAA map or Microsoft's Streets and Trips have served me well.
