It’s quite easy for those of us, who are retired or have abundant vacation time to impose our travel limits on someone who isn’t as blessed! The OP stated that, he was only going to “push” the first day! With limited time...he’s driving past what his family has already seen, in order to give his family more time in Yellowstone. I’m guessing that he’s a fairly young man....unless he waited “very” late in life to start a family. So his desire to “cover ground” the first day (while everyone is well rested)..... seems “pretty darn smart” to me!
Bingo. I take these conversations as life lessons as to how not to portray myself when I get older and start believing that my "opinion" is the only RIGHT opinion.
The original question should be considered tongue in cheek. There are 1000s of different personalities, schedules, skill levels, comfort levels, geographical locations, time constraint reasons, etc to even begin to think there is a "right" answer.
We may go 100 miles or 1000 miles in a day depending on the day, the mission, the sites, etc.
I just ran the better part of 1000mi a day towing, twice, to WI and back, because thats what was the order of the day. Took 8 days to go 2200mi to AK because that's what we did. Last year's family trip was 2000miles in the first 2 weeks, virtually no miles for a week and 1800 miles in 2 days to round it out.
