    Where were you coming from to be routed through lima? It really makes no sense to take an os through town.

    I think you'd have been better off staying on 30 to 75, or taking 33 depending on destination. That had to be a real ##### getting around the turns on 65 through Lima.

    Aren't you allowed to ask for different options when you get your routing?

    Unfortunately it’s not that simple, up to 120,000 if the route passes analysis it will auto issue with your requested routing, If it fails analysis goes to manual intervention and you have no idea what you’re going to get. Over 120,000 it has to go to bridges and you’ll get what they give you. I’ve had very little luck through the years getting them to change routing. Usually it just makes it worse. I’ve been through lima with the nine axle on several occasions, it sucks for sure but I’ve done worse.
