Author c340 question on better route

every once in awhile the unit will say, better route available, my question
is why doesn't it route me like that in the first place? The other thing is
how do you access the better route.

TIA

Good questions Jim - my Nuvi has done the same thing - once when the route to
my house was 3km straight ahead, no turns! ANY other route would be miles
longer, and also on dirt roads, so???? Buggered if I know

Ok called garmin and they said it might be a glitch in the software and they
will get back to me.
You can press the detour to access the different route.
The guy also said it is nothing to worry about and that the new maps will be
out in about 2 months.
The price is going to be 69.99 US dollars.
