I've had a Nuvi 750 for several years.

$60-80 for a Nuvi or TomTom, there's your nav.
Here's a TomTom for $50 after rebate:

$20 at the VA hospital canteen for a Tracfone with 365 days of service and
20 minutes included, a $20 airtime card would give you another 90 days and
a couple more hours of talk time. Get a car charger for the phone, throw
phone/charger in the glove box, maybe get a 2nd phone for the other car,
and you're out half the $299 purchase price of one OnStar.
