Ten years ago or so I took a cross country road trip and was dismayed at the broad lack of digital coverage, so when I did another one five years ago I figured I wouldn't be using my smartphone much and bought a Garmin GPS. I barely used the Garmin and had very good cell & data reception the whole time. Two years ago I did it again - and I did bring the Garmin again, but never took it out of the trunk. Next time, it's just gonna be a smartphone and Google Maps. Unless you're going really off the beaten path, I think the days of dedicated GPS devices are over.
