MODERATORS
I originally read this comment and thought "that's so recent, I'm sure I first used GPS way before that!" then I did the math. I was right around that time too with my semi smart phone and the gps being very vicinity oriented and not precise at all.
I recall it thinking I was a block over from where i was one time and it repeatedly told me to u-turn for some reason. Not great times. Especially in the dead of winter directly after a good snow that brought down some trees and closed some roads, there was not an easy detour in that area and the gps wasn't easy to redirect.
