A couple of things, Map #1 is supposed to show Camino, CA which it doesn't as Camino is off the map. Further, conspicuous by its absence is Sacramento which is dead center on that map. On Map #2 where's Fresno?

I agree, No Sacto or Fres-neck are listed.

West Sacto, SAC69's home, isn't there either, and his phone doesn't work anymore. Frank, have you opened a parallel universe?

Bingo! If you zoom out or in one level the cities are noted, but just not at that zoom level. On a few occasions, I was searching for a town I hadn't heard of to see where it was and Mapquest didn't show Fresno or Sacramento. This happens with a lot of other cities as well. Seattle doesn't show at one zoom level. San Francisco isn't listed on one level. San Jose, however, shows up on every sub-national level. I guess we're special. :vic

Mapquest fail.

Ever since Mapquest sent me and a friend to a road in Sac that had been closed for years, I use google maps:p
