5.0 out of 5 stars Forget Mapquest & Yahoo...., June 5, 2009

By	God Lover (Los Angeles, Ca United States) - See all my reviews

Who are these people who love Mapquest & Yahoo? I have gotten lost numerous times with directions from map sites. They do NOT update when road construction changes streets. I found this guide invaluable when I moved to Portland. I don't think I could have made it without it (!). Portland is a confusing enough city to drive around in as it is (understatement!). My print outs of Mapquest got me lost more than once...then what to do? I don't have a GPS and wouldn't want one after all of the bad reviews I've heard (and they are NOT cheap!). I've been using Thomas Guides for many years as I've had a sales job that kept me on the road full time and needed to know the main highways for gas stations, restaurants, hotels, etc. My Thomas Guide & my AAA book have always gotten me where I need to go. I even keep my old guides in my car "just in case" and have never been sorry.

5.0 out of 5 stars 100% failproof against GPS and cell ph failures!, October 16, 2008

By	Dave L (California) - See all my reviews

Hey J.Lim have an idea! These are reviews you dummy! Don't want it - don't buy it! As for the book it's up to date, informative and easy to read. Full of extras and points of interest. If left without GPS or cell coverage - it works everytime, never a bad connection. Although you might need light during times of darkness.
