Go for it. Don't let all the nay sayers load you up with their negative ramblings about how how they like to travel.
One time many years ago I worked all day, took a final exam that night, and then proceeded to drive straight thru from Maryland to Sioux Falls non stop. That was the first leg of a 10,000 mile month-long trip around the country. And here come the flames.
Cover what distance you feel comfortable with and go see some of this country now - not years from now when a couple hundred miles a day might be your limit.
