How many miles have you towed in one day?
We are planning a trip to Yellowstone next August. I want to go about 550 miles the first day. My wife says thats too far. What do others think?

Driving on the interstates when towing, you will average 50 mph after fuel stops, lunches, potty breaks etc. Decide how many hours you will like to drive (we usually make it 6 or 7) and then you can know where to look for a campground.

x2 on the 50mph average, unless you are one of those that tows at 85mph plus and only takes a break when absolutely necessary. I can easily calculate arrival times because no matter what, I only seem to go 50 miles in one hour.
Personally the MOST I will do under normal circumstances when towing is 400 miles. Too easy for fatigue to set in and I'm sure you know what that can lead to.
Things are a whole lot different towing vs not.
