    ^ Priceless... :D :D :D

    ... and probably true. Just yesterday morning I asked my Qualcomm nav system to route me to a local truck stop after making a delivery. I always use the Preview function to get an overview of the route. In this case the 2 mile drive to the truck stop was noted as 4.5 miles!? I then noticed that it had me drive right past the truck stop, get on the freeway, go to the next exit, turn around and come back on the freeway, and then enter the truck stop... as I turned into the truckstop without all that rigamarole the lady said, "You are headed in the wrong direction".... :D

    That's the best way to do it... to avoid the portable weigh station DOT had set up on aisle 1.;)
