...Let me refine my question a bit ...
If there's an app or a small number of apps combined that can do these things, especially the option to set a fuel range parameter and have the app locate fuel stops, I would pay for that. I do enjoy paper navigation, but I also enjoy tapping into the database for easy answers when expedience is in order.

The simplest way is to merely add a couple (or as many as you want) of "waypoints" that guide your routing between your start point and end point.  If you want to avoid Atlanta, just click a few points on state highways that avoid the city.  I do know that Kurviger (https://kurviger.de/en) offers you the ability to select the type of roads you want to use, while it computes the entire route. You can pick curves, lots of curves, mult-lane (interstate) no multi-lane, etc.  But it can get complicated real quick.  Which is why I always come back to Ride with GPS.  Click on the map and it draws the route.  If I don't like the route it choses, hit the "undo" key and click on the map somewhere else.
