I have a Garmin capable of accepting custom routes built on Googlemaps. I'll be using that.

I was wondering if you can sort of fudge a route map by setting up way points.

On the google maps page once you have set your location what happens if you don't select your final destination. Instead select a point along your route that you wish to go through. Then select add a destination. This allows you to set a series of way points along the route. It may not always pick the exact road you want, but if you set enough way points I think you can come close.

I haven't tried this yet but I just sent a test map to my car to see if it will work.
