    Route Tool

    I found a pretty slick website that I used to setup my route runs. You can input all your stops, and it maps out a route for you either shortest trip, or round trip. If you've got a TomTom device you can actually export it to it! Now I know what I'm going to buy next toy purchase at bestbuy!

    I use Google Maps(Get Directions) a lot when going to multiple auctions in one day, you can enter as many destinations as you like.

    it's based on google maps, just helps set up quickest route, or a round trip.
