You would have to pry paper maps from my navigator's cold dead hand.
I use my Garmin a lot when driving, but my navigator (wife) is always double checking with the Atlas and/or state road maps.
I'm 10 younger than you, and my wife is younger than I am.
I would never only rely on my phone for vital info. It's pretty good in the east, but out in the west there are too many dead spots. And even in the east, if you're in the Appalachian Mountains, there can be dead spots.

79 years old and the grandkids talked me into smartphones --- confusing, then wonderful! I threw away all my old atlas and paper maps. Also the yellow pages. It's hard, but necessary to keep up w/ technology.
