So, if that's something you think you might want you may want to look for what routing features it has.
The 650 does have the option to avoid highways.

Go to the setup (the wrench icon)
Touch the "Navigation"
Touch "Avoidances"

You can "avoid"
Traffic
U-Turns
Highways
Unpaved roads
Toll roads
Ferries

Make sure you have "Avoidances" enabled
