You do need something. I think it's pretty individual which works best and I don't have enough experience with stand alone GPS units to give much detail.
We use the phone's system even when the hubster is driving and it is more useful probably because I can look ahead w/o you know, crashing the car from eyes off of the road.
I have used it alone, though. I look over the route first and have a vague idea of where I'm going. I've never used it "cold" so I don't know how well my hearing it and driving skills would integrate with no prior knowledge of the route.
