I think you can leave in the evening the night before you planned on leaving and get 200 miles done. Then the next day you can do 800 and you are halfway there. if you drive 12 hours and push a bit you can average 60 mph avg. That will get you 700 or so the next day and be there the third. it is harder to come home that way so I would build in an extra day or three and stop and visit stuff on the way back.
It's great that you are encouraging a person to drive a 12 hour day and "push" it to average 60 mph. Do you really have any idea the speed he would have to drive an RV to average 60 mph in a 12 hour day? Are you allowing for fuel, rest or food stops?
If you drive that way on vacation, I hope I'm never on the same roadway as you.
