[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1808208, member: 131855"] Glad to hear that the information was helpful. I'm new to CarPlay and don't use Maps often. I don't think the data use is too bad though. You might give [URL="http://connectedcarlife.com/features/how-much-data-does-apple-maps-use/"]this[/URL] a quick read. The author describes how he went about calculate the data used during a commute. That method may not help with one off trips but might be a good way to estimate typical useage. I used to periodically travel into an area withought a good enough signal for Maps to work well. I would plot the route ahead of time on my Mac and save the file as apdf. I could then send the pdf to my phone. When needed I could use the pdf on my phone without needing to burn data. It couldn't provide turn-by-turn naviagation that wy but got me where I was going. [/QUOTE]
