2500 olsen dr, chippewa falls, wi

Does NOT take you to the actual address, it takes you on the outskirts to someones house on CR Q(I think, either way it's not the right spot).......Google maps has the correct location. The place said it's the same road name, just a different zip code/county.

Just thought I would share since I went on a little adventure on thursday

 

Start was the flying j in Carlisle pa (pared over night there). Destination was youngsville, LA. (city center since i didn't have address yet). It does the same on other routes. I have the filter set to only allow flyingj, petro, ta, and piliot. It found the flyj i was sitting at and no other ones when i clicked on route. (well after 5 min it was still searching with only 1 result). If i go to find travel centers on route it finds tons of these.

Im now in botetourt, va at the sounth bound rest area. my via is the pilot in rising fawn ga (415) and my destination is 1-2 chemin metairie rd, youngsville, la.

I click it right now it finds 2 within 8 miles and is failing to find any others. To make this feature useful i need to see the prices for all the states i will be traveling in to find the cheapest fuel.


UPDATE: after 10 min, it found 6 with the furthest being 77 miles away. The little thinking icon is gone and it is nto looking for any more. This is a 400 mile trip to my via and it should find a lot more.

 

also the fly j in carlisle...you can make a left off 11 into fly j. There is a light and a gap in the barrier. the gps will route you either through a different exit then 52/52a, or it will route you 5 miles past and have you turn around. IF travling 81s, you CAN turn right in only .3 miles from highway.

 

i tried using the show on map and manually clicking, (PITA). the problem with that is in many cases the cat scale icon overlays the price. Its finding the price quickly though...i think the problem is the finding the locations....not finding the price when it knows what ones. It should use the same "on route" algorithm as poi.

 

Yeah that map looks accurate. Thank you for passing it along mark.
