First, the GPS told us to take FL 228 from I-75 to I-295, cutting out the entire 13 mile segment on I-10.  We chose to ignore it.  Afterward I looked at that route on Google maps and it considered the route to be 4 minutes slower, but 2 miles shorter.  As the GPS was set to pick the fastest route I can&#8217;t see why it would think that route was faster.<\/p>\n<p>Then, as we approached our destination in Richmond Hill GA, the GPS told us to take US 84 to US 17 north.  Google maps was saying we should take I-95 all the way up to the intersection with US 17, then go south to get to our destination.  This time we opted for the GPS and it cost us 2 miles.  But we avoided an ugly turn across US 17 traffic, so I am happy with that tradeoff.<\/p>\n<p>Google 1, GPS 1.<\/p>\n<p>Our home for 4 nights is the <a href=\"http:\/\/koa.com\/campgrounds\/savannah\/\">Savannah South KOA<\/a> in Richmond Hill GA.  I will give a full review later, but our initial reaction is very positive &#8211; a beautiful park and a great site.<\/p>\n<p>Or maybe we are just glad to not be surrounded by derelict RVs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>221 miles via I-75, US 301, I-10, I-295 (around Jacksonville), I-95, US 84 and US 17.
