The description says this map is from 2010. It is actually from 2006. There is an entire freeway exchange in Bastrop that is not on the map. It also falls apart at the creases after one use. It is a little easier to read but not all roads are clearly marked and it is five years out of date. A lot can happen in five years. I contacted Rand McNally and they confirmed that the map is from 2006. I returned the map to with no trouble.
Perhaps I didn't read the fine print of the description closely enough, but...realize that West Texas is on one side of the map and East Texas is on the other. As a result, if you bought two maps and overlapped them to have one for the wall the actual dimensions would be about twice the area. I did buy it to put on the wall but my plan is to use pushpins to track where I've traveled and concentrating on East Texas suits my purpose. I agree it probably would not tolerate a lot of folding and unfolding but it's really big so I'm not sure it would work well for trying to read in the car. And I suppose if you live on the edge of the map, you might be consulting one side, flipping it over as you travel, then back again, etc.
This is a great map printed on poor stock. Mine ripped at the folds the FIRST time I opened it. I though, my bad. Well, it's now torn itself in three places. It's a shame, because the print is large enough to read and a good product.. EXCEPT for the paper used. If you could find this laminated, it would be excellent.
The map is high quality with an appropriate amount of detail and served us well on our trip through northern New Mexico. My only criticism is that the paper the map is printed is thin and tore easily so is only usable for one trip.
For the most part this map worked for us. However northeast of Galveston, TX, we were heading toward Rt 87. This map shows Rt 87 as going both east and west along the Gulf. But when we got there, the road only ran west. To the east was a beach and water. We ended up wasting nearly an hour backtracking.
Not a big fan of paper maps. Got this one in case of emergency. Map is decent quality. Once fully opened it takes forever to fold it back. You have to match the original creases when you fold or you'll end up with a thick map. Not too sure what they mean by easy read, it's all tiny letters.
I bought this map for a 6 motorcycle trip to Texas and back. I had hoped that the map would be better quality than previous reviewers had stated but sadly this map ripped along a fold the 2nd or 3rd time I folded it. I took great care to handle the map gently, but it really wasn't made to last. The details were fine and easy enough to read but it was a one-time-use item. I wouldn't buy again. Next time I'll go for a laminated easy-fold version.
we've used several of these, since they disintegrate after a few trips, to drive most everywhere in texas. it is accurate, and you can read it while riding in a car. the natinal geographic map is far too small to be useful, unless you attach a magnifying glass.
