You guys also have to keep in mind that when iPhones doesn't get any good coverage then the gps apps won't work...

I have a Verizon I phone and I've never had a data drop that affected my gps on the phone with telenav. I've only tested it in the Santa Cruz mountains in that capacity though.

You're close to a large urban center. Last weekend on my drive in the mountains at 9k feet I was without cell coverage for 2 hours. Thankfully I pre-printed my maps. I was in northern california. I believe in the dead mans pass region. Didn't have a map to confirm though.

This statement makes no sense. Having cell phone coverage shouldn't have any impact on GPS coverage, unless you are talking a tunnel. As a matter of fact, usually the opposite is true.
