The answer is #2. Drain the tanks and blow out the lines. I tend to overkill so would add pink to the lines as well.
Now if you are only going for a short time consider staying in hotels. You will be burning a lot of fuel to get there and have to deal with propane for heat when you get there.
Additionally what would you do if you hit inclement weather with ice and snow on the road. MH are not great in those conditions unless you are prepared with lug tires.
It may make more sense to do a quick drive.
