Chapter zones require more time while DLC zones require less (except Wrothgar, which would have been the first Chapter back then if they existed). I'd say a DLC zone is worth about 5 hours, a Chapter zone 15 hours and a vanilla zone 10 hours (of doing the map markers and not running around aimlessly). Craglorn and Wrothgar will be treated as Chapters. I do not count Imperial City and Cyrodiil.
There are:
16 vanilla zones (3x5 plus Coldharbour) = 160 hours
5 starter islands = ~ 15 hours
7 chapter zones = 105 hours
7 DLC zones = 35 hours
Overall: ~ 315 hours
It really depends if you skip all the dialogues or listen to them, if you're running speed is normal or you're using a mount etc. I'd say 300-400 hours, which is a lot.
Those numbers seem about right but the real time sinks are things like dungeon/ trial achievements and pvp achievements.
Probably took me 1000 hours over 5 years to hit max rank in Cyrodiil.

Regarding this, is it possible to mostly "pug" BG's and Trials through the group finder or Dungeon finder queue?

You can solo-queue BGs, Trials don't have an automatic dungeon finder-like queue, they must be pugged oldschool by asking in the zone chat or (highly recommended) ran with a guild. PUGs are rarely fun.
