Default Re: Comfortable daily mileage for transam trip?

When I drove my '30 Tudor home to Atlanta from Oregon October before last, our daily mileages ranged from 210 to 340, the latter being before dawn to just after dusk. Part of the calculus when traveling in largely uninhabited areas is figuring out where to stop for the night. No use trying for a 300 mile day if it gets you to where there's no lodging or food!

I would suggest calculating on 200, or perhaps 225, miles a day basis, just to have some 'fudge factor' in case you have trouble, especially if you will have a non-refundable ticket.
