Anybody Use Traffic Enabled GPS
For as gadget laden as my Jeep Wrangler is (public address system, digital trunking scanner, puppy cannons, etc.) I actually don't have a modern GPS. Rather, I have an older (go hike in the woods with your digital breadcrumb trail) version that doesn't do anything but tell you where you are. So I was considering getting a newer, cooler GPS for the car to find all these client sites, hotels and crazy roads in NJ, NY, CT, etc.
Has anybody used a traffic enabled GPS effectively? I've seen some that indicate a requirement to have a subscription that uses your bluetooth phone to get information. I'd heard of FM based traffic (from an article where people hacked them with fake traffic signals). So I'm curious if they're worth the extra money and actually find GOOD alternate routes.
