We sometimes travel 600 miles in a day, and sometimes for a couple days back-to-back. That's about our limit though.
That's 12 hours at 60mph, with a couple longer stops to give the dogs and kids a chance to run and stretch. (We could go further without having to stop for them.)
We keep it at 60 because that's what Toyota recommends, and it's only 5 mph below the rated speed of the tires on the trailer. It doesn't prevent us from traveling far in a day.
Lat time I checked, Toyota manuals suggested maximum 45 mph when towing. That was in both my 2009, and 2010 Tacoma manual. Really goofy.
