I agree that 600 mile/day would be a lot -- even if you were flogging a rent car. In a Model A -- no matter how "touring class" you make it -- 600 miles in a day would make you feel like you were in a Mad Max movie. However, I also know that Mark and the other Town Sedans that we were trying to keep up with were driving "Station Wagon speeds" so we didn't overly stress our new engine. Without the 50 mph'ers they could have made it to The Falls in a day. But they wouldn't have had so much fun!
