Without stopping somewhere to sleep? Me and a buddy left at around midnight on Xmas from Baton Rouge and traded off driving while the other napped for 6 hour shifts and got into Washington, D.C. at 8 pm 18 hours later. Still don't know how we pulled that one off.

I drove from Torrington, Wyoming to Rayville, Louisiana once. I only stopped for fuel. Made it in about 25 hours.

Southern border of Utah to the northern border of Washington. Took about 20 hours. Almost hit a guy that was wandering around in the middle of the freeway at 3am.

My uncle took me skiing for my high school graduation gift back in 2006 over spring break. We drove from Fort Worth to Vail, Colorado, using the Fort Worth-Amarillo-Denver route. We left at 11:00pm and got to Vail at about 4:00pm. So 17 hours but stopped at a rest stop in Amarillo for 2 hours so 15 driving hours.

On the way back we had to stop through Tulsa, OK so we went the Colorado-Kansas-Tulsa route. Left Colorado at about 9:00pm and got back to Fort Worth at 10:00pm the next night, so 25 hours. Absolutely miserable experience all around. The worst part of all was that it was on the first day of March Madness so I had to miss the entire first day.

Knoxville to Orlando 9 hours. I didn't even drive though. I'm just terrible at long distance driving. I won't be winning Iron Butt award anytime soon.

BR to Corpus

When I was about 8 we drove from BR to Minnesota w/ out stopping. Then to Connecticut with a stop in Ohio. On way home from Hartford we stopped in Tennessee.

I think the speed limit was 55. My mom drove and I never slept.
