Nuvi 370--As the crow flies?

 

I've had my Nuvi two weeks and have been loading locations in "favorites". I noticed that the distance stated is much shorter than when I ask for a route. ie: 1539 miles vs a actual route of 1976 miles. I know the 1976 is closer to real because I've driven it X times before.

Any thoughts on why the difference?

It seems to indictate>>

as the crow flies until you say "Go", then it calculates the actual route. That's how my C530 works anyway smile

I agree with TMK

My C530 also seems to estimate diatances "as the crow flies" untill you ask it to calculate a specific route.
