@quixoticgeek Agreed! #GoogleMaps is the one #Google product I have recently gone back to for driving directions both for planning and in-car.
I had been using #HereWeGo but it's just not as good. Neither is Apple Maps (if you're in the Apple ecosystem).
I still keep #OrganicMaps on my phone for no-mobile-data emergencies and non-driving use (walking etc, it's brilliant for).
My normal go-to in a browser is #OpenStreetMap and I generally prefer its map renderings (particularly TraceStack Topo) but sometimes I switch to Google, especially for #StreetView.
