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?

My RV travel is purely recreational. I use my RV to travel the USA with my family,relax and have fun.
When I was younger and more energetic/foolish I would tow/endure 700 miles days.
However now that I have wised up, I realize vacations are for relaxing and do not have to be an endurance challenge. Driving excessive distances just to get THERE is too much like work. I go RV'ing to escape the rat race. I do not need to travel with my RV at a rat race pace.
After making a Canon Ball run you are generally are too tired to enjoy the destination you exhausted yourself to get to.
350 miles or so is enough. Pull over find a pool, open the cooler and we are vacationing at wherever that puts us. Enjoy the evening/town/location you are at and set out in the morning fresh, ready and alert.
I've learned that vacation is a state of mind not a destination.
An endurance mission no longer fits into my state of mind when on vacation.
