Turn left, then make a U-turn. Say what?
Just a rant on the wonders of the technology age... Arrived in Reno yesterday after a fantastic 3 day drive from BC. Never been here before and planned on relying on the Tom-Tom GPS to get us qui...

Heheheheh!
Our Rand Mc Nutty, won't tell you whether to turn right or left until you have turned onto the road. then it's 50% chance it will take you on a uturn. Kind irksome in strange territory. In Arizona it took us on dirt roads and paths, that took us, in one case half a day to get to the Park and amonth to get the dirt off.
Our Garmin program was written by Saturday Night live on a slow night.
It's tried to take us down a sidewalk and a tour along the lake Michigan beach under water, in Traverse City.
It's tried to get us to take old Indian traces that ford creeks and through people's yards.
It's tried to take us an old stage coach road where GGrand Pa had a hotel and the road is mostly gone and cut away by dozers etc.
On a trip to Dale Hollow to do some fishing, it took me, in the truck down goat paths, someone's drive way, and cow paths but it cut 20 miles off the trip.
The GPS in the Mercedes is haunted.
had to go to a funeral home and did not have the address, just the road. Put that in and figured I would find it from there. It directed me down an exit and down the Hwy and said my destination was 400 ft on the right. It was wrong it was 450 ft.
I'm going to have the Preacher do an exercism on it some day.
The Ford is real fun too. It really likes to turn left and turn left and turn right down long stretches of dirt roads in hollows so dark daylight is 12:00 to 12:05.
Computer is hanted too it just inserted a bunch of this between some other stuff I posted but I ain't gonna correct it.
