How many days to drive from Brownsville Texas to Miami Florida?

Answer 1

It is a theoretical one day drive with the estimated driving time by MapQuest set as 23 hours an 51 minutes. To make it anywhere close to that time would mandate a good relief driver and a magnificent pit crew, favorable weather, the sun at your back, no hassle with the highway patrol, zero traffic congestion, and a finely tuned vehicle. With a single driver, young and in good physical condition two days seems reasonable. With a family ad the dog four days would be comfortable and five days has turned into an enjoyable vacation trip.

You could of course add a week or more to the trip by heading west and visiting Carsbad Caverns, Sandia Peak,Glreta Pass, Santa Fe, Taos, Mesa Verde, Garden of the Gods, Pikes Peak, Dorothy's House, Branson and Graceland on the same trip and make a genuine holiday out of the drive. A worthwile side trip to the Painted Desert, Grand Canyon and Meteor Crater could be easily worked in as could several other choice stops but we all know that the restrictions of fiinance, time and distance are all at work in trip planning.
