Navigate your way to family fun and less headaches on the road

Family road trips, and long drives in general have their own unique nuances. Does one stop for directions? How many bathroom breaks before Albuquerque?  Is it really 115 degrees in Phoenix, AZ?

Fortunately, navigation is one less headache, and with hands free devices one can remain safe while being confident they are still on course. If you don't have a built in navigation system in your current vehicle, there are many great options that will be worth the money spent and then some. Updates such as weather, traffic, and gas efficiency make modern GPS devices a great investment for your vehicle.

Some top brands across the market are:

1. Garmin (producer of the Nuvi)
2. TomTom (producer of the XL and XXL)
3. Magellan (producer of the Roadmate)

In addition, housing units that turn smart phones into hands free navigation devices are great for individuals who already use navigation applications on their phones. Remember safety is important but that are many options that will keep you safe and on course.
