why is my navi retarded?
Tonight im coming home and i decide to let the navi tell me my route because i was not 100% sure how to get back home. I make a few lefts and a few rights and before i know it im in the f*cking middle of nowhere taking all these backroads. Pissed me off, all i did was choose shortest distance it didnt mention that it would avoid any semi-major road **** was retarded ended up taking me 30 more minutes than usual.
Its a stock navi on an 05 anyone got any ideas?

There is a setting within the unit (I have an 04) where you can enter in your projections for average speed for different road types. The default is enough of a speed difference between 2 lane highways and interstates that, on a longer trip, it pushes too much to get to an interstate that it may add over 100 miles to the trip. It is how it comes up with estimates for shortest TIME ![Smilie](https://g35driver.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Be realistic, though. Factor in small towns.

I have an issue with my navi, too....... where I live the FL Turnpike (toll road) is very close to I-95 and they basically follow a similar path. Even if I am already on the turbpike, the NAVI tries to make me change to I-95. I just ignore it.
