I remember when I finally realized that my first GPS wasn't very good. At the time, I made a 2-ish hour trip in the evening. I was also still in the habit of bringing printed directions with me.
My GPS took me 5 miles off of a major interstate and then tried to have me drive 20 miles on an unpaved road.
I turned around and followed the interstate. The GPS tried to get me to take every exit. When I took the exit from the printed directions, it was only a few minutes to my destination.
(For those of you familiar with the Bay Area,) this GPS had me exit El Camino ave onto University Ave in front of Stanford, and then immediately get back onto El Camino. It didn't lead me through the underpass. (I think I got off because I thought the destination was near University Ave.)
