GPS isn`t absolutely neccessary, but its nice to have! Since you will need to by good paper maps anyway, you can travel without the GPS. If travelling cheap is one of your criteria, I would say don`t worry about it. Your profile indicates you are from Mexico? If so, your communication skills with the locals may provide as much directional info as the GPS can provide (where is this road going? etc..)
