I go old school, like this:

This approach has the added advantages of allowing placement right in front of you on the dash, like a heads up display, and the ability to move it from car to car. And for a fixed up-front cost with free lifetime map updates and traffic alerts my current unit (nuvi 2555LMT) is still going strong at 9+ years old. You would need to research which models, if any, still come with the free updates.
 
It also occurs to me that having a dedicated GPS unit frees up the screen one would otherwise use, whether phone or vehicle. I would not encourage f*cking with a phone or screen while driving, in fact it makes me angry when I see it, but there is utility in changing settings while idling or having a passenger do it.
