Agree, just put in the destination and then depending on your particular sat nav you can set it up to tune the route. Mine's one of those cheapies off Ebay which pretty much only allows me to block what it calls "Highways" (which in practice turns out to be Motorways and some significant dual carriageways) and toll roads and that worked pretty well on the continent, but my mate has got the full monty BMW gear and that was actually too good, especially if you selected the "twisty" option because it took you on the most torturous route possible......... In the end we settled on a compromise between the two!
