What's the furthest you've driven alone nonstop?

15 hours, only stopped to get gas. It sucked.

ETA: But three years later I made that same trip - with a hiker chick I picked up. That did not suck b/c she did.

I've walked further than I've driven. My record is 500 miles, and then another 500 miles. I walked a full 1,000 miles just to fall down.

At her door.

Mine was 15 also. Came to 990 miles.

ETA: I'm currently in the middle of a 19 hour non stopper that will come to 1,203 miles.

Atlanta (from Baton Rouge)

Not bad really other than that brutal stretch of I-65 from Mobile to Montgomery.

BR to Gatlinburg, over 10 hours of drive time, plus some stops.

I've made plenty longer non-solo drives.

16 hours stopped for gas a couple of times and once to eat lunch. The drive should have taken 13 but traffic around New Orleans and Baton Rouge were a bitch, I understand why everyone bitches about it now.

Either Destin, FL to Austin, TX or Lafayette, LA to Dandridge, TN.

Not crazy far, and not sure which one of those is the furthest.

solo Houston to New Orleans after Katrina in a car with no AC.

I would make the drive every other weekend to come home and see my son. I would leave on Thursday night and go back Sunday night.
