Default IFR with a VFR GPS

So...do I tell a briefer to note that I have a VFR GPS and will the
controllers take note, sending me direct, off airways? Will it make any
difference to them at all? Given the fact that nearly everyone has one
nowadays, will they assume I have a GPS even if I don't indicate it?


If you file off airways and if radar monitoring can be provided and if
specific routing is not required for your departure/destination airport then
you'll get direct routing. Indicating you have a VFR GPS makes no
difference.
