GPS are great for places you have never or rarely visit but not needed, IMHO, around TV. Especially if you live there!
Russ, once you know the lay of the land the GPS becomes less useful I agree but still is a lot of fun to play with. When I was at TV and saw a home in the paper that was having an open house I just punched in the address and off I went. I had about a 85% hit rate on those addresses. It was great for all the places that are outside the plantation that I wanted to try.
