re: Whats the furthest you've ever driven in a day?

1200 miles
Branson MO to Treasure Coast FL

I drove from Key West to Lafayette in one day, 1174 miles. Ended up taking about 19 hours.

I've driven for over 24 hours straight going from Baton Rouge to Los Angeles. I don't think one can quite appreciate just how big Texas is until you actually drive across it. Cross the Louisiana/Texas state line in the early evening and then by morning when the sun is coming up you're still in Texas and still a few hours to go until finally hitting NM

I want to say 14 of my 19 hour trip from Key West to Lafayette was spent driving through Florida. The worst part is driving 35 mph through the Keys.

Birmingham, AL to Hays, KS, in route to Denver. Roughly 16 hours and 10/10 would never drive that far again. Young and dumb is a hell of a thing sometimes.

Not sure if it was the furthest... But I drove a friend from Vail Colorado to Las Vegas in one day... But the kicker it was in August and the car didn't have AC.. I started to feel sick and realized I was dehydrated.. I had salt rings on my shirt and BB hat..

DFW to Minneapolis. Just me and my 3 year old

In college drove from Bangor Maine to just a little north of Orlando..that was a long 24hrs..eating nodoz like tic tacs, chugging DCs and with the fuzz buster on the bash.....blasting Motley Crue

Houma, Louisiana to Corpus Christi. 550 miles or so. Non stop. Got some invoices signed. Topped off my truck then drove back home. Corpus to Houma 550 miles non stop. About 18 hours round trip.

I had extra fuel tanks installed on my truck due to the gas shortages at the time and carried about 60 gallons with three auxiliary tanks. With a gallon jug to pee in I could go a long time.

Last year I was up in Omaha, after the game we went to party at Barrett's Barleycorn Pub. Got in bed around 2:30. At 7am, I was wide awake. Drove back to Cypress, Tx. Only stopping for restroom breaks, food and gas. Somewhere around 800 or so miles.
