We love to travel secondary roads and explore in our Jeep. Street Atlas is excellent for this as it shows so much detail for planning purposes. We do transfer a final route to our Garmin for use while driving just as a heads up but in no way does it compare to the Street Atlas on which we do our planning and refining. The Garmin just doesn't show any detail.
As far as maps being updated, they are quit sufficient for us. We find very few errors but then all mapping programs will have errors.
We use multiple sources while we're in the planning stages. No one is perfect. We also love the Benchmark series of paper atlases for traveling in the western states - not available for eastern states. They also have a lot of easy-to-read detail, especially on landmarks, public campgrounds and backroads for our Jeepin'.
