You know what would be nice is if GPS's had a "direct route" mode. To me that would cure a lot of the routing issues..We have "Less Gas" "Fastest Time" or "shortest Distance" Most people use fastest time, sure the GPS most likely save us 4 seconds in that mode, but the direst route would be nice

Be careful what you wish for. Direct route can take you on dirt roads if you select that option. It would be no different than shortest distance and my 7200 will take you on dirt roads with that selected.

Rather than "Direct Route", an option I would love is "Stay on this road until I tell you to take another one." I don't know how many time while driving secondary roads my Garmins have insisted on hopping off the highway I'm on to route me to another or through a city, then back onto the highway I was on. If I want a tour of a near by city, I'll do it; I don't want the Garmin to do it for me!
