"A lot of prep work"? Not at all.
You update your GPS "when they're available". Maps and Waze update on a daily or weekly basis with a database so large as to cripple every stand-alone GPS.
"Why would I want/need traffic"? Have you ever driven on a highway where there was an accident ahead? If not, you are a better man than me, Gunga Din!
Live traffic data is NOT available on your GPS "when far away from somewhere". You need to be near somewhere (or connect to cellular traffic data).
If the phone rings, answer it! The turn by turn instructions will still be there. You really need to learn what your phone service can and cannot do before you start arguing points you don't understand.
No, this is not gas vs. diesel. This is informed vs. uninformed. It's not pointless informing folks that there are folks like you spewing incorrect, uninformed information to folks looking for the truth. The truth is that EVERY current smart phone today will dramatically outperform EVERY stand-alone GPS on the market today.
