I have almost given up on my NuVi because, like you, we like back roads and not interstates. With the Garmin if you say avoid them, it will route you through some ridiculous roads to avoid even a small section of interstate. It is either on or off, not prefer. And, it will not give up...it insists you take that route. Just my opinion and a data point. Others will disagree.
I'd think that the new Garmin units with route shaping would be perfect for your need. As I understand the feature it first calculates a route and then you just drag portions of the route so it goes where you want it to go using the roads you want it to take.
That is what I want. The shortest way is not necessarily the way I want to go.
