    The unit also tries to send you on lower level of george washington bridge. That's a nono. Trucks are allowed on top level only.

    Denver CO. Going East on SR58 to I-70 exit 269 it tells you to take 269A which actually takes you off the freeway. You really need to take 269B.
    You were on SR-58, merged onto I-70. What was the destination?

    Going in IL on I-70 doing a search for truck stops from Troy to Effingham the Love's at exit 45 doesn't show up.
    I need more info. Where is exit 47 located?

    I-70 in Limon CO rolling along. Searched for T/S's on the route to Trenton OH. I see the T/A in Oakley KS. I picked that place. She tells me exit either at #70 or 79. (I forgot.) Whichever it was wanted me to get on US-40 to get there. 16mi. from exit 76 I went to my recent favorites and resent to go to Oakley. It caught it's mistake and set a course for exit 76.
    This one I have given to our engineers.

    This is not in our mapping database. It's not in Google Maps either, and Mapquest does not show the proper street. It will need to be added in a future map update.

    Destination for the first was Trenton OH.

    Exit 47 coming out of St.Louis is 47mi into Illinois on I-70 going East.

    The Baltimore MD area has had lots of construction. That area needs updating.

    Plot a course from Waco, TX north to Lancaster, TX on I-35. When you approach the 'Y' where I-35 divides into I-35E and I-35W, the lane assist feature correctly points to the I-35E fork toward Dallas, while at the same time the header and label information all state "I-35W, Fort Worth", which is the wrong direction. :-(

    I see the issue at the I70-I76 split. I have given it to our engineers.

    The Love's at exit 47 should be in the next map update.

    Here we go again Brian.

    Cruising down I-85 coming out of Atlanta. I picked a truck stop along the route going to Lafayette LA. I picked the Petro in Shorter AL. Stupid thing wanted me to run to exit 16, then back track down US80 back to the 22. I guess I was suppossed to run right past it?

    We have some weird stuff going on!

    I was coming from the parking lot in West Nashville at the Walmart (which incidently isn't listed in the Walmarts, been there 10 years or more!) She tried to get me off at the 282(?) VS going down to 259 and jumping on I-285 around Atlanta to go to 747 Douglas Hills RD. in Lithia Springs.
