    I have a double din in dash system and I use IGo on road and OziExplorer off road. I have been using Ozi for many years. The reason I like it is that you can scan any paper map and import it into Ozi. You are not tied to propriatory maps at sometimes a huge cost. One example is: I wanted to look through an old gold mine I had read about up here in the North East. The only reference I could find was a hand drawn map in a history book. I copied the page, scaned it and imported it into Ozi. I calibrated the map using the location of creek junctions on the hand drawn map (compared to locations on a modern map) - marked the mine location as a waypoint and drove directly to it.
