New Tesla Owner, Confused ABRP User

[RHinCT]

As a new (1 week) EV owner (Tesla Model Y long range) I haven't done much EV route planning.  However I have done enough ICE planning and driving that I know what route I WANT to take from here in CT to my sisters in southern NJ.  I am trying to (a) follow the route I always take, and (b) use ABRP to analyze power usage and figure out my charging locations.  So far I have not been able to take control of the route.  Is that even possible?  My route avoids New York City.  The way I go involves taking the Tappan Zee Bridge (yeah, I know the renamed it) to get across the Hudson River, then the Garden State Parkway to the NJ Turnpike, then almost to the Delaware Memorial Bridge.  The only Supercharger I KNOW I will use is at the Clara Barton service stop near the south end of the NJTP, getting a good charge just before I reach my destination.

I've been trying to do this on my PC, with a real keyboard and big screen, rather than on my phone on an app, or sitting in my car in the garage.

So the question is, can I use ABRP with the route I want?  Thanks for any advice for the newby.

Try using waypoints or even better, use Guide points.  These will allow you to route to specific locations and so force your preferred route.

Use Waypoints.

Thanks for the advice.  I found Guide points and Waypoints.  I hadn't seen them up to that point.  I did manage to convince it to follow the route I use.

Thanks again!
