*Summary
*At the end of the day, it's a GPS. It doesn't care about cell service or cell phone tower triangulation for navigation.
It uses satellites and lots of them.
It navigates you home no matter you are.
Should you buy one? If cell service is spotty and you travel. YES.
I wouldn't buy new. Refurbished save money and makes sense.
Consider the value when compared to the modern cellphone.
