another question though.

I tried to be as pro-active as possible in pre-determing my stops for each evening (so that i can pre-book a room) and map out, as best as possible, the enroute truck stops that i'll be making along the way (figuring that it'd be easier to get gas with a 22" penske towing a car - at a truck stop as opposed to a regular gas station).

i'm wondering if there's any good advice on whether i was too ambitious with any of the segments below. Ideally, i'm thinking to drive "roughly" 600 miles a day, averaging 60/mph, with a bit of time allotted for gas/bathroom/eating, etc - and then hopeful ample time to get a good night's rest.

I'm hoping that i'm not being too ambitious in my estimates (especially when driving through some of the more mountain type areas) and if so, if i need to cater the time better?

thank you
