St. Louis to Las Vegas - What do I expect??

[Campingnownthen]

Hi all,

I’ve gotten a lot of great info from everyone here and have a few more questions. We are working on planning our trip end of April and haven’t traveled more than an hour with our 5th wheel. We have a 2014 Springdale 28’ and pulling it with a 2016 Chevy Silverado 2500 diesel. We will be putting new tires on the camper prior to our trip, service the truck etc. We were thinking about going from St. Louis to Oklahoma City (map app says 7 hrs) the first day then to Albuquerque (7hrs 30mins) the next. The last day would put us in Las Vegas Motorcoach resort (7hrs 51mins). My question is how much more time should we add to each day for travel time? Our speed limit will say around 70-75 at max, weather permitting. We will be in Vegas for a convention from Monday thru Wednesday. What else should I know or consider? Any additional info would be greatly appreciated!
