How many times do you use GPS every month? Do you already own a smartphone?
- I own a smartphone, and I like its NAV features: voice command, real time traffic etc.
- I plan on keeping the Raptor until the wheels fall off, so resale is irrelevant.
- I don't use GPS often.
- I needed to fit the payments into a tight budget, yes $40 a month makes a difference.
- NAV software goes stale over time, and new disks can run $200.
- I like less crap that can go wrong.
- I can already back up without hitting stuff.
With different parameters I can totally see making a different decision.
:P

Perfect logic! This is why I kept the $2,500 in my pocket.
