Lived in grapevine for few years. Good place

You’re getting routes that are often used by people making that drive. From your location is at least use that slight detour down 287 and forget about passing through Dallas.

Just be happy bro

It’s a way of saying. Take the scenic route.

It’s trying to give your alternative route. Even if it takes longer it’s an option in some cases.

in the last year ive started preferring Apple maps. It doesnt try and take me on a re route that saves 3 seconds but takes me off the highway like Google does far too often.

And one thing they flat out do better is the small detail directions in cities. Like…go past this light and turn right at the next one. Sounds like a small thing but can be a huge help in a busy city you haven’t been to before. I also prefer their on screen lane directions on busy 4+ lane highways.

Apple Maps employees have not taken graph theory classes I guess

The alternative slower route is scenic route to Dallas. Great to take if you’re in a nice car and want to make some stops along the way. The other is the plain boring 45 north everyone takes.

As long as you’re not on I35 it’s all good.

I blame Texas

There aren’t that many routes for where you’re going.

It’s in ATF mode

I have had options where Apple Maps recommends that I get off the interstate, go do a loop in a a neighborhood, then get back on the highway right where I got off. And it’s about 15 minutes slower. Still no idea why.

Maybe Chip and Joanna Gaines pay Apple to send people through Waco to visit their cash cows?
