I swear by my GPS. That thing saves me a TON of time by just putting me on the doorstep, as oppose to driving around and around.
However I do have that annoying voice turned off that tells you when to turn and what not. I just follow the highlighted roadway.

Yeah and driving around in circles because the directions or map that you got are outdated or wrong is so manly... I would rather get there on time and save time than get lost...
GPS is good enough for all the military but not good enough for us??? I do keep maps in my truck and better yet know how to read them, but for ease of use I will use the GPSish map crap in my cell when need be. It to has been wrong, but has yet to get me lost.
