You can put this solution on YOUR website! distance is roughly 2500 miles.
if you average about 500 miles a day, then you would take about 5 days without killing yourself.
500 miles a day at an average speed of 50 miles per hour takes about 10 hours each day.
even though you are traveling at higher speeds on the thruway, you have to stop and rest and get gas and can get caught going through towns and possibly obstructions so your average speed is going to be less.
this assumes no extra ordinary problems along the way.
if you can share the driving with somebody else, then one can rest while the other drives and you might be able to shave a day or two off of that.
at 800 miles a day, you are talking a minimum of 3 days, possibly 4.
800 miles a day at 50 miles per hour average is 16 hours a day.
at 60 miles per hour average it's 13 hours.
it could be done but it's difficult on the car and the drivers.
so my best estimate would be somewhere between 3 and 5 days to get from savannah, georgia to los angeles, california depending on how hard you want to be on yourself and the car. this assumes you have another driver with you.
if driving alone, then I would say 4 days minimum with 5 days and possibly 6 days as more likely.
5 days averages 500 miles a day.
4 days averages 625 miles a day.
again, this assumes no extra ordinary problems along the way.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! There is no good reason for anyone to go from Savannah to LA. LA is too polluted and the state is broke.
Stay in Savannah and save yourself gas and the bother of a math problem you don't need
