I think that I use Google Maps as my favorite. I love them all. But the reason I posted was to ask what happened to my old favorite, Mapquest? That site came up in a Google search for me and reminded me it ever existed.

I prefer Google Maps because the voice sounds so excited to direct me to "downtown."

If you just need a map then anything will do, but Google adds real-time traffic (via tens of millions of Android devices), nearby establishments and how busy they are (likewise via Android devices), street view, etc. They are spending billions to take mapping to its logical end, a virtual model of the world, everything in it, and the almost real-time status of everything.
what happened to my old favorite, Mapquest?

My favorite (least favorite) thing about Apple Maps is how it will give you the real route and a few alternate routes even if there’s nothing wrong on the fastest route. And the alternate routes will be 3 hours out of the way.
I don’t use GPS or mapping services anyways because I’m a male but I use them to see how long the drive will take before turning them off when we start driving.

Ended up in a not so good part of Birmingham traveling for work thanks to mapquest. This was 2008 and I quickly purchased a GPS soon after

Had to drive to Chalmette from BR for work in 2011. It was my first time so I printed out map quest and headed out super early. Mapquest took me through the desire Street projects.
Thankfully I called my dad about another way home and he explained how to get there using 610
