Part of the kit I would receive on the first day of each of my television jobs was a thick map book of the city. I wouldn't go back to that for anything. Used along with some common sense, Google Maps is a vast improvement.
People who want to go back to paper maps probably buy hand drills and reel lawnmowers.

100% agree! Those that think paper maps or directions are better are out of their mind. Using electronic GPS devices is not being lazy or incompetent but is simply more efficient. Especially those that update traffic condition, construction, closures, etc. I will indeed use my GPS to drive the same route I have every day for 20 years just to know what is going on ahead of me. This very morning it saved me sitting stopped on the highway for 45 minutes or so because they had a section closed for repair. If I hadn't had the GPS on I would not have known and been able to avoid it.
No doubt there are many millennial hipsters that feel paper is the way to go though.
