    Im not sure about the tom tom one but with version 6 I have an option to change the route, either by the planning settings quickest, shortest avoiding motorways etc. I know other ways so if tom tom plans to go a route I dont want to take you can use the plan alternative and avoid the road it will take you down.

    Another thing that is on tom tom 6 I can do advanced planning where it will show me the route it will take it will also demo the route etc.

    Another feature is itinary planning where you can set multiple destinations or stops for a route in advanced and when your ready just go and run the route.

    An up to date tom tom one should have version 6 so I would expect them to be on there but I do know that there are a few options that are not available in the GO's that are on the PDA versions.
