This summer I am driving to Palm Springs, CA and going on a custom route. The boring part is getting to Amarillo, and then down to Clovis, NM. From there, to Socorro, NM for the night, 614 miles. Then on to the VLA telescope tour, to So Low AZ, Prescott, AZ, on to Aguila AZ and on in to Palm Springs.

I just punch in each city one at a time on my GPS. It is connected to me phone, so I just use the sell phone to add a new destination, and it uploads it the the GPS.

Garmin does have a program for a computer called Garmin Base Camp. It allows a custom map to be uploaded to the GPS, but I have yet to get it to work right for me.

Porsche has an app called Roads. You have to sign up with Porsche, and give them the VIN of your car, and get on their email list. Then use that log in email to use Roads, but it is free. I plan to have that set up and ready as well. I want to make a side trip up to Amboy, CA and Truth or Consequences, NM just to get a photo of my car in front of the sign.
