On some on-line mapping programs such as MapQuest and Google, you can change the recommended route to the route you want to use by simply clicking onto the recommended route and dragging to the desired route. That capability would be a great addition to a GPS unit. I have a Garmin nive 2595 and have problems getting it to 'map' the route I want. I know there are ways to do what I want on my Garmin but (to me) it's a hassle. Would love to have the capability as mentioned above. Any thoughts? Thanks, Larry
I know you can also do that in MS Streets & Trips but I am not aware of any GPS that has this drag and drop capability.

MS S&T after 2010 will allow you to import into some Garmins. That is what I do, I create the route I want, then using a USB cable download it into my Garmin. As I remember the Garmin must have the ability to maintain 100? or 1000? waypoints for it to work.
Doing it this way has made my life a lot easier.
