Why is Mapquest so sucky?

[RStar]

Yeah, I used Google maps (I think) when it popped up conected to some event I was going to. I remember that I could click on a different road I prefered to use and it re-routed my trip. I like that, but couldn't remember what service that was. Thanks for the reminder!

I'm going to delete Mapquest and replace it with google maps. But most of the time I ues my Thomas guide, although it is 5 years old and needs to be replaced. I have been waiting for the new construction to slow down. Other than the work on the 5 (which I try to avoid anyway) I think its safe to buy one now.

So they buy the info, huh? I wondered who decided how the trip would be planned.

It also occured to me that the trip through the Orange Crush had to be changed due to connecter roads to different freways being closed durring the 22 rebuild. This may have something to do with the info I got.
