[DML] Re: Gettysburg Caravan - Indy Lunch Stop

["welmoedj" <joe.dalton@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I am very interested to know what the average daily mileage is that 
is usually planned by D owners.
Though I have been in the US before, this will be the first time I am 
making a trip in my own D in your country.

I started from the assumption that 500 miles per day seems to be a 
good and achievable target.
In the last part from Atlanta, Ga to Gettysburg I may have to stop at 
Charlotte, Nc to collect some heavy parts for my son's 69 Mach1.
Don't flame on me for using the D as a mule :)
The trip Atlanta-Gettysburg is some 660 miles. The stop however may 
cause my staying overnight somewhere in between start and finish.
What do you think of this. Am I correct in my assumptions or a little 
over the top and should I take two days for this part?

Please enlighten me.

BTW I am going to use 85 to Charlotte, then 77 and 81. This seems the 
right way.

Your valued advice, please.

Welmoed.
