Well, I would say that GPS, maps, turn sheets  etc are much easier to use in
a car. This makes everyone knowing the route much more difficult.

Also, a mechanical failure or "fender bender" can be far more serious on a
motorcycle than in a car. A "flat" is very dangerous to a rider, but for a
car? Meh. Wait for AAA.
Us? Pray you can stop before the tire totally fails.

So we are a little more concerned about people getting out of contact.

Also, I don't know the terrain where you are, or if comms span the entire
group from front to back or just car to car.

Scalas and the like do the job for small groups of friends wanting to jabber
on the ride while one or two bikes away, but we are looking for reliable
Command and Control ability.
