Some Garmin units come with a life time update when you purchase the unit. We have found that they are really great for getting around in new cities but leave a lot to be desired when going from city to city. Our RV Gramin was great for keeping us out of tight spots, at the time was pulling a 37 foot 5th Wheel.

A GPS is easier, IMO, to use when driving that an iphone or other hand held device. Lots safer to.
do u get jordan st on your gps?
