So how do you plan a trip to avoid bridges and tunnels that do not allow LP?
You could do this manually with a free program called Tyre which will let you great a route that will download to any Garmin or TomTom GPS. But if you are going through this you don't need anything more than a car GPS. You would first need to put the destination and start point into Tyre and let it route you. Follow the line of the route and look for bridges and tunnels, and then go to each location's website (usually the State DOT) and check the list of prohibitions on the bridges and tunnels you are routed through. Then set waypoints around those bridges and tunnels so that the route cannot go through or on them. I do this also with height restrictions for my in-dash Tom Tom regular GPS in my RV - but any change in route along the way becomes a problem with a new routing that cannot be checked on the fly. This is why no propane setting in the new Garmin RV GPS is a big problem.
Other RV GPS units have this setting. Also the Garmin Dezi Truck GPS has this setting. Garmin dropped the ball with this new RV GPS.
