Does it work without fail when you drive out of range of mobile reception?

Yes as long as I've downloaded offline maps which I always do when I leave the bay area.

If it has planned the route while within service, it actually does. It guided me from Vegas to Yosemite (via Lee Vining and the Tioga Pass) without trouble despite several areas of no service. It had registered the waypoints and knew where it was, even if I couldn't load any additional map data. (I had not saved the area for offline use.)
