I missed my turn after getting gas. Google Maps said, “no worries, go this way!”
Went around a farm warehouse, onto a dirt road, through a vehicle washing shed, over a heavily rutted and primitive railroad crossing, then along the irrigation canal through a flock of seagulls.
My reaction: what the fuck, Google?!
After the business tour, I took a look under the car and backed out of the parking spot. No sign of fluid loss. Thank goodness. Picture of dirty Killer Queen for your time.
Update: bonus picture of the route I had taken. The building on the right was where I got onto the dirt road. Then I got off the trail at that tractor trailer parking lot in the foreground.

You must have asked for the scenic root.

Still accurate I see...
Though imagine the dark old days when we had to print out directions from Google, or worse, Map Quest.

I missed a turn and accidentally ended up driving down a service road for a large water treatment factory

When driving from San Diego to the Grand Canyon, Google suggested the route through Twenty-Nine Palms and the Mojave Desert. It was a fascinating drive, but probably not the route I would have picked.

If you have one thing to never worry about, it’s breaking something under a Crown Vic. In that things past life, it has definitely hopped many a curbs.

Back when Garmin first started selling dash mounted GPS the mapping software was known to go off a computers assessment of satellite imagery to determine what constituted a road. Game trails in open terrain, one too many rocks in a line, image taken at the moment someone completed the first row in their field, all kinds of zany shortcuts the normal person would never pursue.
