call me old fashioned, but I really enjoy seeing a folded up map in the glove box.
Way better than mapquest.com

I have junk in my trunk, as well as a North American road map and tools to change a flat tire.

Cartography can easily be art. I'm an avid map hoarder. I love picking up old 1950's road maps. Great to see how things have changed.

Bet you that when maps were hand drawn like they did centuries ago, the people thought they were artistic and creative during the process. 

I like real maps printed on paper and folded up as well, although Google maps and Mapquest can be equally helpful.

Could I model for a map? That would sure be something different, I'd probably be up for it. But a map of what?
