My wife and I are now thinking we didn't allow enough time to summit, hike down, and drive back 1 one day. We were thinking of going up a day early.

If you have overnight permit you can stay multiple nights as long as you let them know your desired itinerary when you pick up permits.

They put entry and exit dates on the permit based on your desired itinerary. They need those dates for records and rescue purposes, I guess.

I suggest that you call them and find out if you can start earlier than your permit date.
