    Re: LI Drivers SUCK!

    I WOULD LIKE A GPS TO TAKE WITH ME HIKING. HOWEVER NONE OF THE ONES I'VE SEEN OFFER A BIG ENOUGH SCREEN WITH JUST A SATELLITE VIEW OF WHERE I AM OUT IN THE WOODS. I'M SURE IF SAID GPS DOES EXIST, IT'S NOT GONNA BE RIGHT ON MY WALLET.

    GPS systems are just as fucking bad as a cell phone! When you got a little TV screen on your dash that talks to you, that your gonna stare at..Its just a recipe. My mother was using hers yesterday and it tried taking her down a one way street..

    As much as I detest and hate them..I still wound up with one as a present. Ill give it one thing, Its good for directions. Ill punch it in and get a map, then copy them down on paper.

    It's something to be used as a tool to assist the driver... not something to replace common driving skills. That said, we all know that people don't use the brains they were given.

    Want? ok...
    Need? If you say so. Coulda used a GPS puck with a smartphone and had an inexpensive GPS solution that allowed satellite images.

    A decent handheld GPS unit with topo will cost you 3-400 min.
