I use to do AAA trip tixs. It's a bitch to program the GPS with that info. Bing maps with clearflow is the next best thing. And you can download the directions into your GPS! Give it a try!

Bing Maps is a spin off of the program that I used above to generate directions. It called Microsoft Streets and Trips. The online version on the Bing site has left out so many of the options that make streets and trips great. It is way better than google maps (MapQuest) as it actually shows real roads and does not send you down roads that no longer exist or that do not actually connect. I do not know if Bing does this but on streets and trips you can update current construction info as well and detore around if needed. The fuel cost estimator is cool as well and is fairly accurate as long as you know what your total average would be.
