Route planning based on daily drive time
-
Route planning. Is it possible to create legs based on time of travel? For instance I want to travel from the east coast to Arizona with an average daily drive time between 8 and 10 hours. If I start at A and will end at B I would like MRA to suggest stop points in-between at the designated travel times.

With all due respect, that is called route planning and it is exactly what the MRA Route Planner is used for.
Let's say your route starts from Brooklyn Bridge, NY, position a route point somewhere west of there to gauge a rough travel time and distance.
In my example below, I have positioned the end point just east of Columbus and the travel time is 8hrs with a distance of a little over 500 miles. The system will use the fastest route, so highways, if you would prefer smaller roads drag the end point back a little and start adding additional route points on the roads that you want to use taking in any sights or towns that you would like to visit.
Creating your own routes rather than relying on a system built route is so much more enjoyable.
