| I live between highway exits 122 and 123. My Magellan Crossoverkeeps
trying to send me to exit 122, but exit 123 is actually better. Is there
a way for me to set it to always use exit 123?

I think you have 2 choices:
1) Lie about your home address
OR
2) Do like pilots do when the automated tracking fails.........switch to
visual !! ;-)
[sarcasm on]
Do you really need your GPS to get home from either exit ??

| Hi Sara,
Have you tried the Route Exclusion function? Once you have calculated your
route, you can exclude any of the segments and have the route recalculated.
Depending on the firmware version you have you might do this by touching the
"next manoever" arrow on the left of the screen, then selecting the segment
you want to exclude. Unfortunately you don't have the option of specifying
the route/exit/street that you do want to take but the alternate route
usually picks the next or closest option which might be what you want.
Unless I have missed something (entirely possible) you will also have to do
this every time since I don't think there is a way to save the specific
route.
Let me know if anyone knows a way to do that.

Ah, okay -- that's what I was wondering. Thanks.
