I think you'ld find much of US 50 obscured by urban growth. It may not be continuously marked anymore either. For instance from Kansas City to Emporia Kansas, it is I-35. At Grand Junction Colorado it merges with I-70, well into Utah. When you see that piece of road, you'll understand why only on right of way is maintained. US 66 is much more popularized ,and there are some interesting sections of it left. There are lots of tour guides for US 66, so it would be easier to do. You could take 50 to St. Louis and then pick up US 66 there.

200 miles a day is nothing in the US. When you get to Kansas, Colorado, Utah, if you don't stop, you can do that in less than 2 hours.
