Anyone know what the current rate is for hiring a Sat Nav system at Dollar rent-a-car?
I have the option of hiring a SatNav system, already uploaded with US maps, from a UK company. Works out at the equivalent of around $150.
Does anyone have any recommendations for other rental sites?
GPS Nav systems are fine for in-city use -- but considering where you are going on your trip -- better plan to use some paper maps -- Benchmark is still the gold standard for 90% of your route.Quote:

Being that it is a digital map, it's also highly dynamic as far as calculating distances and automatic route finding.
In Car GPS is okay, but if you have a laptop computer you can save some money by just picking up Streets & Trips or comprable software.
Just a thought.
