Why does this happen so often on the left coast?

I went on-line just now to check a route from Boise, ID to West Yellowstone MT.

Mapquest says:
I-84 E 386.67 miles

Do the math;
You would have to average 67.3mph to do that run. REALLY?!???!!!
I don't think so!

Probably for a car?

I challenge anyone to make that route in any rig at that pace and not break the posted speed limits. Not many cars even have that kind of range; 400 miles.

well, my truck has a 450mile range, I have an easy 500+ mile range in my car. Highway/interstate Posted speed limit in most of Idaho is 75 for cars, same in montana. Possible if you can avoid any towns, but I agree, not very likely. With DW impossible, she needs rest stops to often. I suppose it could be done with one quick rest stop. If I'm by myself, I usually go about 4 hrs between stops minimum.

BTW my garmin RV760 seems to have darn accurate time estimates for us when we are towing.
