I use one for work. 10-12,000 miles/month. Wouldn't occur to me to be without it. Not a week goes by without it making or saving money for me. Rarely turned off. As to what's heard, one learns to separate wheat from chaff as part of the background of getting down the road.
Knowing what lane to be in, confirming that an alternate route will work, etc, lessens stress.
And both my pickup and TT have them.
For an ordinary vacationer, sure,, there'll never be a day Internet & phone service is unavailable.

Well, there IS one place in the USA where there is absolutely NO cell service, and NO internet!!!!
ALBANY, GA
Had a sporting event there. It was at a historical plantation site. .
I never laughed so hard as everyone pulled in and realized there was zip zero service. When everyone got out of their RV's and started walking all around the site with their phones held above their head trying to get service.
All those people walking around aimlessly trying to get bars on their phones! It reminded me of the movie Night of the Living Dead! Perhaps the confederate ghosts were just getting even. :B
