Waze has terrible routing skills. Every single time it screws up. Google Nav always finds a better route.
Kayak really makes me mad. The prices aren't even cheap at all.
While the bigwigs like Google Maps or Bing can get you there, Waze is one of the few that actually show you what is happening right now, where to find the cheapest gas in the area, and so on. You can sync your location, destination and ETA with others, so that Christmas family reunion or camping trip gets easier, at least the driving part of it.
