Needles highway was um..err...fun lol but just because I refused to pull the mirrors in haha.

The surrounding area was very cool, but man a lot of driving to/from michigan. Its doable in the 2 days, but I couldn't do it in any less.

Next year....key west! But allocating 3 days for that one.
Three days? That's quite ambitious IMO. Two drivers? If not, I'd plan on 4 days just incase of weather issues. Better off having an extra day and not needing it than the opposite. There are a lot miles down to Key West on 2 lane roads and bridges and traffic can move very slow.
