I have an "old-fashioned" GPS program, that is still updatable on my newish laptop. OK, I have to be out on the porch to plot my route, because the receiver gadget doesn't work inside. But it works well. It's a Garmin program from 2000, maps are still constantly updated, and they told me when I installed it on my Win 7 laptop, they had no plans of discontinuing the updates. You may be able to find an inexpensive CD on ebay or Craig's list.
It is customizable, you can save "waypoints" (the old name for favorites), you can save trips, you can zoom in and out, and there's no limit I have found in the no of cities you can plot on the map. At least we didn't last fall when we went from Northwest Washington to Central Florida via Pittsburgh and the boonies in Tennessee
PS: it's called Garmin nRoute
