I would love to be able to see ETE and distance to a waypoint added to a route.
This would help figure out what rest stops and gas stations are within range.
Add route advisor waypoint info(ETE and distance)
Re: Add route advisor waypoint info(ETE and distance)
I agree and I have wished for this a time or two. For the time being, I have two solutions.
1) based on my sleep time, I view my map before leaving the pickup point. I then go to the mid way point and look for fuel/gas stops and setup my waypoint there.
2) I always pull up my map when I get to 4hrs left before I need to rest. I use to use 3hrs but that cut it too close and sometimes there were stretches when it put me over 3hrs and I crash. Kinda cool to see the screen black out, lol. But I find that at the least, there is always a place to rest within 4hrs. So when I check the map, I find the rest stop that is the closest to my delivery point that won't take me over 4hrs and rest there. There is also like a 10-20 min buffer once you hit 0 time left to rest before the screen blacks out. I haven't reached that point in awhile but I hope SCS didn't remove the black out and just replaced it with the fine system.

My post are only thoughts and ideas. Don't assume it makes ATS.
