I do something similar except I’ll stop using my GPS if I’ve driven the route multiple times.

    I think that is a good compromise, or maybe doing it just for your own local area and regular commute routes.

    While I get the appeal in general, I don't know if I want to go back to planning out a route with maps when driving to far-away unfamiliar locations.

    Depends on the complexity of the route. When I visit my parents in another city (5-6 hour drive) I write down the intersections/exit numbers to look out for on a sticky note I leave on the dashboard.

    I guess if you wanted to get detailed you could include the distance then as you drive do the mental math as an activity for yourself.
