Yep, but we have tons of dead zones in the Midwest. It's more convenient to have a GPS unit capable of working without the assistance of cellular towers. Plus factory nav integrates with the HUD, so when your turn is approaching you get a little countdown displayed.
The pros for me of the factory nav is the ability to work without cell reception, it integrates with the HUD, and I can leave my phone in my pocket.
