Dude, take the rose tinted goggles off for a second. I had a GPS navigation system for my car early on, around ~2010, maybe a little earlier, that thing was shit. It could hardly figure out where I was in the city. It would very often snap to the wrong road and I’d have to reboot it. Today, it’s simple. I just pull out my magical everything device and use an app. Technology has progressed A TON in 20 years.
Yes. that is why smartphones replaced integrated navigation about 15 years ago. It’s OK that you were a late adopter, but that doesn’t change what happened. I was happily using google maps to navigate with my phone on a little holder on the dash and actively making fun of people like you by 2010.
It was actually kind of funny to have better navigation and a better stereo in my 1993 Ford Ranger with a quarter million miles on it than dumbasses that bought new cars in 2010.
