Which Head Unit?

Can you expand on that? (Especially since I am considering the Karoo 3 as an alternative once I need to upgrade.)

For comparison, here is how I use routing most of the time:

  • I create a route with MapOut and export that to the Wahoo app. I then load it.
  • If I need to deviate from the route, I do that by hand (e. g. because of road closures or if the gravel sections are too rough for my aero road bike).
  • If I need to think about alternatives on the fly, I take out my iPhone and use the much better screen (which has pinch-to-zoom, etc.).
  • Wahoo’s routes are often, hmmm, rather suboptimal, suggesting repeated turns onto small roads in a suburb rather than sticking to the major traffic arteries.

What I’d like to see:

  • A way to transmit routes from Apple Maps to my head unit.
  • Automatic re-routing. (This has been added to Wahoo’s v2 generation of devices.) Quality of routing matters, though.
