One of the problems I have with Garmin is they say they have traffic reports but it's only for certain cities where you wouldn't want to take an RV anyway. I've only had that work in Atlanta where I don't want to take an RV every again.

The weather feature seems nice, but I guess that depends on your smartphone having coverage where you are when the weather is of concern.
