Apple's stock iPhone maps program or Google Maps?

Well, I'm biased against Google, so that settles it for me.
The stock iOS Maps app is really pretty good, in and of itself. My biggest gripe is that I would like a more easy to see set of traffic issue visuals.
The real issue is the mapping data - Google's is better, but it comes down to your needs. In my area, I've never found Apple's maps to be insufficient, but YMMV.

This fairly recent thread on the subject might of some help: https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1698208/
I use apple for nav and google for finding places. Once again, there have been numerous threads discussing this already.
