[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 1136460, member: 12508"] FedEx Express would not allow the use of turn-by-turn GPS because it would be considered an "electronic device" and a potential distraction. GPS isn't going to help you efficiently route your stops anyway...it merely provides directions. The only time I use the Navigation feature on my smartphone is if there is a new street that isn't in the mapbook. If you're familiar with your area, you don't need it anyway, and in my experience, about 5% of the time the Nav feature provides faulty information, such as streets that don't go through etc. It looks like we run our routes the same way. And I was serious about my earlier "Welcome Back". We usually disagree, but you're fun to bat around. [/QUOTE]
