Routing Options
Trip Summary
Click the Options button in the
Trip Planner window to access
CoPilot routing options.
Auto and Quickest is the
default setting, and provides the
quickest routing for automobiles
based on practical considerations
such as road quality, terrain, and
urban/ rural classifications. RV
routing favors major roads and
avoids sharp turns, U-turns, and
urbanized areas where possible. In
the U.S. only, RV routing avoids 12'
6" height restrictions on highways.
Scenic routing avoids major
roads and favors more rural and
scenic roads wherever possible
and practical.
Also see Routing, p. 26.
Click Advanced to set general
road preferences. Drag the
sliding bars to the left or right to
avoid or favor each road type.
Set the road speeds CoPilot uses
