Some bad info on the smartphone option. You do NOT need or use data IF using an app like copilot premium or garmin viago with maps to go. These apps install the full North america maps on the phone and use the phones built in gps chip to navigate. I have used both on iPhone 6 plus and they work very well. In fact the advantage over my garmin 3750 is the viago software works with the garmin HUD unit and iPhone 6 plus appears to have a quicker aquiring gps chip. Also map display is higher res on the 6 plus. The advantage of having a full feature gps that is always with you for trip planning etc is huge. Not for everyone but if you have a top tier smart phone with good storage it is a real option.
