My car has one built-in and much to the chagrin of Him Indoors I never use it, maps have worked fine for me for <i>nnnn</i> years and will continue to do so.Bag End Gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06190496929132717769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4459096535013512763.post-4292662339643823942016-10-28T07:57:16.813+01:002016-10-28T07:57:16.813+01:00So far so good here....long may it continue that w...So far so good here....long may it continue that way!<br />ArilxArilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07447764056767139963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4459096535013512763.post-7335932663906357342016-10-27T08:56:00.313+01:002016-10-27T08:56:00.313+01:00I have only had bad experiences with the 'deli...I have only had bad experiences with the 'delights of a Tom Tom' my boys liked to have it on the Eastern Bloc Grandma and she regularly would send us completely the wrong way and if we altered the journey slightly but still ended up on the correct road, she would have a conniption and scream at us to return back to the correct route. Once in frustration at her in ability to adapt I tossed her on to the back seat forgetting to turn her off first and for the remaining journey I could hear her muffled instructions getting more and more irate as we went along ... suffice to say we have returned to map reading - much less stressful!kjsutcliffehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02064786032612487652noreply@blogger.com
