Barring unusual circumstances or frequent stops it's more like 4.5-5 hours, one-way, from LV to either Rim. The South Rim is a lot more built up in terms of places to stay and facilities and is probably better for a first timer, but the North Rim is still a great place to visit, and my preference between the two. It's more laid back, and because it's at higher elevation when you look from North to South you get to see the plateau approaching the Rim before the dropoff.
But it's hard to go wrong either way, and I agree it's an absolute must-see-in-person experience!
