Hi Matt!
Some of the friends I'm going with already been on the east coast (also on the west coast for that matter) and they traveled from North Carolina to New Orleans and back in two weeks. So yes we need to plan. But traveling by RV most likely takes up more time than by a car. So yes we must plan well.
Eric,
I am glad that you have an effective brain, that can be a rare find these days.
As one that has done a lot of both, I can tell you that RV travel, when properly managed car be as fast as a passenger car - overall. While the road speed may be lower (and most likely will be) the reduction in other areas can easily make up for it. There are two specific areas that gain. There is no pack/unpack for the night and many meals can be carried and either had underway or during a very short stop.
We have done most of the travel you have outlined, and we had a great time doing it.
Matt
