Love my Zumo 550. BUT there are some quirks I do not understand. :confused:
First, I live near three interstate intersections close in succession. Programing the same destination with several days/weeks time lapse between the trips and the gps does not repeat the same direction menu from the same starting point??? It will plot a non direct scurious route through town to one of the other more distant entrances, while having made no changes to the preferences. WHY SO??
Second, plan a trip to state and city. Gps calculates and then you travel the plan via the top navigation bar and lower right arrows. At the end a map button comes up, press it and you get a map, total mileage and expected elapsed time. Now go back to the recent routes log, and the mileage for the same trip is way way off, i.e. for a 600 mile trip it will be off by 100+/- miles. WHY SO???
