Maybe a better question is,"How many hours in one day would you drive drive your Model "A" to an out-of-state destination?

Are we speaking of secondary highway miles or Interstate highways?
On family trips traveling to the nationals with other members on secondary roads, typically a 250 - 300 mile day (-depending on terrain) is about the maximum if you want to enjoy the scenery without becoming too fatigued. With that said, my wife & I along with another couple drove our Model-Ts (I was in my 1915 them in a '24) a tad over 340 miles in a day along the Blue Ridge & Skyline Pkwy. We drove onto the Pkwy in Blowing Rock, NC at 5 after 7:00AM, ...at just before 9:00PM that evening we stopped at our B&B in Luray, VA. That was too long IMO.
