Can I go? Probably 3.5-4 hours after coffee and stuff is out of my system.

Will I go? 2-2.5 hours. I try to stop at least every 2 hours. There’s nowhere I need to go that badly and that quickly to not be in the moment on a road trip.

That's none of your damn business and I'll thank you to stay out of my personal affairs.


J/k. Usually 4-5 hours

When we were younger, I was the one that needed to stop more often. I’d let my husband know 3 or 4 exits in advance & then I’d start changing the words to whatever song we were listening to & make them about really needing to go. As we got older, he caught up with me and needed to stop more often. He also couldn’t take a discreet leak behind the truck door anymore because it took too long.

My truck can go close to 500 miles before I need to fill up. Even at 80 mph thats over 6 hours. Sorry but I can't hold it that long at my age...

I’m paid by the mile so I don’t pee until I get there, wherever “there” is. It’s usually 4-5 hours to my stop

I'll make myself go when I get gas. I rarely need to pee and don't like to poop in non Buccees public bathrooms.

SW Houston to Baton Rouge on Friday ... no stops at all

Baton Rouge back to SW Houston this morning... one stop in Breaux Bridge to pick up a couple of cases of sweet potatoes, but no bathroom usage...

5 hours is good.

I can pretty much just choose not to pee. Having to pee does wake me up at night. Sometimes I go and sometimes I just go back to sleep. Normal fluid intake, at least 12 hours.

I could easily go 4-5 hours without stopping for bathroom.

However, after about 3… I need to stretch my legs abd take a mental break.
