I wish there was a way of sending these custom google maps straight to my phone to have it navigate me through the route. That would be awesome!

I meant having it sent to my Google Maps App on my Droid which is then used for the navigation. I can pull it up on my phone's internet browser just fine, but when I try it using the Google Maps app it just gives me the fastest route instead of the custom one.

I've only lived through the print out directions from Mapquest era

You could just print the directions out and read.

Reading is for losers

It would be easier for me to focus on my spirited drive with just the nav telling me when I have to turn than to have to look down and read directions.

You could also read the directions ahead of time and have it mostly memorized, and maybe drive not-so-spirited so you could read if you needed to.
