Interesting. I now only use Google maps; I download the local area when I need it. Way better than any in-car system.

BTW - Waze is a Google property. If you're using Waze, you only get traffic data from other Waze users. If you're using Google maps, you get traffic data from a wider audience.

Google Maps has the ability to offline cache map data for nearly any geography you select.

While not the best routing, I can still use Waze when offline (ie: my phone is using Sprint at the moment and I'm on the phone, resulting in no data).

LOL you must always travel in cell phone service.  I have been
mis-directed by android and apple maps many times.   I love having
actual GPS dedicated mapping systems.
