Mayfield, Kentucky to Holbrook, Arizona.
Dad and I got paid to take his friend his camper to him at a plant there in AZ. Took two full days to get there. Give me some time and I’ll post a bunch of pics
Edit: The trip goes down I-40 through Arkansas, Oklahoma, Texas panhandle, New Mexico and Arizona. Trip back went through Colorado, down I-25 to NM and back to I-40

Probably not as long/far as some people, but I think Destin, FL to Austin, TX is the longest I've gone in one day.

When I was a kid, New Orleans to Honduras. I do not recall the longest leg of the trip.
Since, a lot of long hauls to national parks. Drove straight through New Orleans to Grand Teton.

My best friend's family lives in Stevens Point. Drove Atlanta to Stevens Point straight through (about 16 hours I think).
Also drove Atlanta to Beaumont, TX (15 hrs), Atlanta to Kansas City (13.5 hrs), and Atlanta to Homestead, FL (14.5 hrs) straight through.

Not very far.
Probably Lafayette to Gatlinburg, or Lafayette to Orlando. Both occurred when I was a kid though.
As an adult, it's either New Orleans to Savannah or Huntington Beach to Santa Rosa.
Huntington Beach to Santa Rosa was my favorite road trip.

Since I can't get a flight I've been driving from Paducah, Kentucky to Orla, Texas and back every two weeks. But hey, I'm still working. Approximately 1200 one way.

A couple of friends drove from Baton Rouge to Anchorage then down the west coast to Los Angeles then back to Baton Rouge. Two teachers that did this over a summer break. Said they'd never do something like that again.

Lafayette, LA to Newport Beach, LA. Just in time to catch a pizza at Mutt Lynch's as they opened the doors for the day!

Wasn't very far, From Ft. Collins to Salt Lake, but I had my pregnant sister in law, my 2 year old nephew, and their dog in the back seat which made it impossibly long. My dad did most of the driving and I know he topped 100 a couple of times trying to get the two of us out of that car.

I read a non-fiction book about a guy who drove from Long Island to San Diego, then down the Baja Peninsula and by ferry to the mainland, and continued to Costa Rica maybe. It was called In Search of Captain Zero.
