Mapping Website?

Does anyone know of a website where I could see what cities are within 8hrs driving time of my hometown, without doing each individual city? I would like to move this summer to a different city but still be within 8-10 hours driving time of my family in Minnesota in case of emergency. Any help with this or ideas of good places to move would be great, thanks!

Update:

Thanks for trying :) Rand McNally is my go to site for driving directions whenever I need them. And I googled as many words as I could think of to describe what I'm looking for. I guess this is going to be a bigger project than I thought!

    Check out the section called "Draw range rings around a point" on this site http://www.gpsvisualizer.com/calculators

    For a 8-10 hour drive that sounds like around 400 miles conservatily try entering "400mi" for the radius and the zip code of your hometown in the location box.

    You should see a new window with the radius drawn to give you a pretty good idea of your range within that driving time.

    RandMcnally .com ??? I'm not sure. It's great for driving directions and shows a good map, Zoom etc. better than mapquest.

    I too am trying to find a web site that shows the states like in an Atlas. no luck yet.

    good luck to you, if you find something, maybe you can let me know?

    I don't, but I'd be interested also in a site where I can put in 200 different addresses and have the program show me the most economical route from home to home.......this is for my Avon business, I'm trying to save gas on delivering books.
