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.
I agree 1000% !!!
Plus - and I'm really in the minority on this - what happens when the "big Murphy's Law" hits, and that is ... if I'm ever out on the open road in our RV when the Internet in all of, or part of, the U.S. goes down? Best case - only the cell tower based channel of the Internet goes down, worst case - both the cell tower based and satellite based channels of the Internet go down.
Chaos like we've never experienced in this country ... and if this happens I hope my RV tanks that should be full are full, my RV tanks that should be empty are empty, ... and that I don't need the Internet to find our way to some place insulated from the mess until they get the Internet back up. :E
Be very wise in what you're relying on and what you're not relying on.
