Benefits of a Portable GPS

Answer 1

Some people have a GPS built right into their cars. While these are easy and convenient to use, a portable GPS is often even better. If you go into a friend or family member's car who does not have a GPS, you can bring yours along with you. What happens if your on a trip, the car breaks down and your rental doesn't have GPS in it? Then you are going to need to entirely re-route the expedition and get some good old fashioned paper maps and directions. Instead of having all of these worries and woes with you when you try to go on vacation, simply purchase a portable GPS that can travel with you wherever you go to.

Answer 2

If you are going on a trip, it is a great idea to purchase and use a portable GPS. Some vehicles have onboard GPS devices, but these devices are permanent and cannot be taken out of the vehicles. A portable GPS is great if you need to switch vehicles, or if you want to use your GPS on foot. Some cities are difficult to navigate on foot, so you can simply take your portable GPS with you while you walk to find a recommended restaurant, Bowling alley or any other destination. Using a portable GPS is also a great way to get you back to your car if you are unfamiliar with your location. You can set the parking location as a favorite and then navigate back to it with your portable GPS.
