Default Car GPS

I have a Garmin:

1> I had to buy lifetime MAPS ( now they are included in many models)
Living in TV it's a must I would think.
2> Lane assist is also a great thing to have on busy highways.
Mine shows all the possible lanes there is and highlights the lane you need to be in. Boy I needed it bad in Atlanta and because I didn't I must have missed turn offs the whole time we were there. I guess living in NYC I was much better traversing highways 35 years ago
3> Mine also has traffic updates but it seems to be a waste for me....
My son has the same model and it diverted him through Manhattan.
That made me LOL.

Good luck.
