Any of you high-milers tried to tether a (cheap) tablet to create a big-screen Waze experience? I can see the lack of an internal GPS as being one barrier. Thoughts?

I have a friend that has a very low mileage 04 year model vehicle that I have been trying to talk into installing a tablet into the dash for apps like Waze and engine management software. I do not think the GPS integration would be that big of a hurdle. An external GPS antenna on the dashboard would do the trick. This upgrade would include installing a Bluetooth system for wireless connection to a smartphone too so I bet the tablet could piggyback off of a connected smartphone as another option.
Why would a low mileage vehicle benefit from Waze and engine management software? Because it is a 2004 Dodge SRT-10 pickup with an 8.7L Viper engine in it making about 650rwhp. It is a damn beast that gets to a 150 real fast.
