You left out one option. Towing a camper with wife in shotgun position loaded with old fashioned maps, and your GPS on dash - 70 hrs. Still 50 MPH average but extra time needed to backtrack. If you follow the GPS that will be wrong, if you follow the wife's directions from the maps they will be wrong. Either way you have to allow for 10 hours of backtracking. If you don't follow either the GPS or wife's directions you still have to backtrack because you refused to stop and ask for directions.
We're leaving in a few days for CA. Bogeyboy (the real BogeyBoy has 4 legs and weights 16 lbs) will add another 10 hours for "Do you think Bogey needs to make a stop?" stops. That's when I get my nap.
