    I try to forget going down that road

    but this morning it wanted me to drive thru a trailer park

    1230 Locust St, Fremont, MI 49412
    to
    Charlotte, 2249 Otto Road, MI

    when you leave you need to take the road named Industrial

    also getting to 1230 Locust St it wanted me to do some weird driving

    the police officer thanked me for making a illegal u-turn to avoid the streets the tnd700 was telling me to take

    "you would not want to go that way"
     
    Mark Kling Thanks this.

    How come I can not get Tallman, NY to come up in my 700. Also any plans to switch to being able to search for towns by zip code like my TomTom does?

    But both Locations are near major Highways there should be routing to prefer Major trucking routes(highway/interstate)
    When I got to the location it was two blocks from an exit
    Sometimes driving around town is easier and safer than fastest or shortest route.

    planning or inputting your own route is a little in the future still.

    Still no official word on the cost yet.

    Thanks,

    Quick stops
    nice feature but if I have route already planned, lets NY to WA
    Wy do I need to be infomed of points 452 miles south of my route?
    Not very quick that far off my route
    50 or100 miles on either side of route would be nice

    A stop calculator would be nice
    input approx distant to travel and find rest areas or truck stops near that distance
    "I need to drive 600 miles today and that would but me in spot"X"and here are some destination stops

    Rand extended it to allow our fellow drivers up North to find items also. Some of their truck stops are a few hundred miles away.

    Thanks,
