Hi travellandmark,
She will not enjoy it unless the distances covered are broken up by lots of two night stops. Example. Drive to a campground (Mount Rushmore), stay the night, do the tourist things, stay a 2nd night.
Plan on one night per week in a hotel and one day per week where no one cooks!
Make sure you do a "back yard" trip first. i.e. camp on your own driveway.
Make sure you do a long weekend trip to a near by campground where you can get all the systems under your belt.
I would not make reservations--that way if the trip becomes to onerous you can trim it to fit. Remember, it is an RV, and is self contained. All you need is a place to park where it is safe.

The amount of miles and days of travel are a sticking point with the Rental companies I have talked to. Plus, I would love to keep the RV. I am an RV type person. My wife is a beach chair type. I am secretly hoping that my wife enjoys the trip enough to keep it.
