Anyone know of a web site that will give you point to point driving directions while allowing you to exclude roads that prohibit trucks/trailers? I need to tow a boat trailer for a vacation trip and don't know how to get where I'm going without using the parkways (which prohibit trailers).

Are you sure that they're not just prohibiting stinger-steered/commercial trucks and trailers? What size boat and what are you using to tow it?

Both my phone-GPS and my mapping software (MS Map point) have modes where you can enter data for what you're towing, and it SUPPOSEDLY knows what roads to send you on. I've never used it, though.

Actually I just found out that the parkway I want to use WILL allow a car with a boat trailer. Around here, in NY state, all of the parkways prohibit all trailers, RVs, and all commercial vehicles though.

But I'm sure there are websites like Yahoo maps or the like that can filter out parkways.
