Last I checked, the shorter route Reno to Seattle ran me down the Interstate with some portions clocking 75 mph and not considering traffic in metro areas. The faster route ran down 2 lane state highways avoiding metro areas for an hour difference at a typical 60 mph average. One can even plot a better route by hand following a straight line on a map, so there is something at issue with their algorithm. I did notice the commercials were for places along the faster route.
