This is so much better than mapquest. You guys gotta check it out. It's so much easier to look around. It's still a little buggy. I searched for my home address and it found it at the wrong spot, then again, I live out in the middle of the woods.

Get a GPS or a real map.

Anyone used MS maps? How does that work?

Mapquest has sent me down streets that hadn't existed for years.

Yahoo maps or now Google will meet my mapping needs.

I used mapquest once....it was sad.


I was following the directions and it told me to get off the freeway, so I followed it, then it made me get right back on the same freeway.....utterly pointless part of the directions when I could have just stayed on the same freeway.


Now I just use the GPS unit in my car, works 100 times better and you know exactly where you are at all times.

Hmm...I think most everyone is missing the big thing. Google, Yahoo and Map Quest all use NavTech maps and data. Although they might pick slightly different routes or the maps might be different sizes or with different amounts of details, it's all the same maps.

it might suppose to be the same but as already stated here a few times. you are better off just driving in the general direction of your destination then using mapquest. I have seen more people get lost in BFE using it then anything else.

I just like the setup of the google maps better. You can look around much easier. I usually just look at the map and get the directions for myself, then try to confirm them with mapquest.

Mapquest has worked perfectly for me everytime...

HMMM, just tryed the google maps from my house to my dads house. Not impressed I should only have to take 2 turns and instead they had me taking 5 And two of the roads were not named properly. Maybe direction on the interstate would work better. Either way gotta be better than yahoo
