GPS speedometer worth the extra money?

[DartorDemon]

I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on a speedhut gauge kit and i'm not sure if i want to put in an electric sender speedo or go for the GPS speedo

i'll be getting a speedhut speedo when the funds allow, after my daughter is born, until then i'm going to keep useing my iphone with a speedo app, it works pretty well.

I have one, it works great. I wonder why anyone would use anything else. I guess if you live underground, then it would suck. Watch,next time I drive my car, it wont work lol!

I've got a GPS speedo in my phone. It cost two bucks, plus the Velcro for my dash...

What does it do over an electronic speedo besides be slightly more accurate? Most electronic speedos are easy to calibrate if you were to change gears or tire size... I dont really see the point in the GPS ones

It mostly simplifies install, which might be helpful in some situations. The speed hut one gives you some fun bells & whistles but otherwise not much of a difference. I run one and it works great.

Display 0-60 Time and distance in feet.
Display 1/4 mile time and speed.
Show elevation
Current direction heading
Accurate GPS Clock
Easy hook up- requires only power, ground and lighting and GPS accurately displays speed. included 15' long antenna cord to route antenna to convenient location in corner of dash.

I am looking at a GPS speedo from Livorsi. I asked if the weather affected it like traditional GPS and I was told that it didnt. I am still weary after using GPS in soo many different forms.
