Streets & Trips replacement
I'm looking for a replacement for my Streets & Trips GPS laptop system. I like to use the laptop for the large viewing of roads that show.

Dick,
That is what I do regularly. SA has a capability to put in duration of stops during the driving day. I have been working the devil out of SA since my requirements outgrew S&T some years back. I don't know if there is a good instruction book, but between the built in address book, the POI Factory and the Discovery Owners (the last two linked above) it is one very flexible and practical package.
When we are underway, I transfer the day's plan to the driver's GPS.
I know of no means to migrate the excursion to a calendar, but that has never been an interest to me. I just count days and mark EOD on my Google calendar so DD&SIL know where we expect to be. When I find wire, I update that.
Along with suggesting EOD based on everything, it can also target your fuel stops. With that information, you can go to GasBuddy and look for good prices.
We also usually travel with SA running with a GPS because we often take issue with the route the standalone GPS likes. I that case, the navigator can direct the driver.
