For the execution of the voyage to the Indies, I did not make use of intelligence, mathematics or maps.” - Christopher Columbus

We cleaned out the car and found a ton of maps. There were 17: hand-me-downs sporting stains from god-knows-when.

They will all be replaced by laptop, MapPoint software and a RoyalTek USB GPS velcro’d to the dashboard. We love the USB GPS - even take it into the woods geocaching. That’s a few feet of cable to wrangle, but I can’t see getting a Bluetooth GPS which needs charging.
