Baton Rouge to Trail City, South Dakota for hunting. 24 hours straight through. Make it every fall.

Took a car from Columbia, SC to Key West which took around 16 hours. Drove from SC to Niagra falls twice. Drove from SC to Denver Colorado once. Trips back to Charlotte from Myrtle Beach always seem the longest though. Should probably quit going to senior frogs while I'm down there.

My family did 36 hours straight through to northern Nova Scotia, Canada from Orlando once. We also drive the 18 hours to Pennsylvania and the 10 to New Orleans regularly. The first time I drove to Pennsylvania by myself I was 17 and that's still my longest solo drive.

I once drove the entire outside loop of the Scottish Highlands from Aberdeen to Inverness up to Wick around the top horn then down the other coast, alone, through land that is mostly barren and isolated on a road that is mostly one lane with a few wide spots for the few times you might see another car.

Longest I've personally driven in a car was in College. Drove from BR to Atlanta for the LSU- Georgia Football game. It's about 8 hours. Buddy of mines family lived outside Atlanta. Stayed there and went to Athens to watch LSU get crushed in the game.

During winter break from college one year, me and 3 of my buddies decided on a whim to take a cross country road trip. We started out just south of Nashville TN and drove to New Orleans then towards Los Angeles without stopping (rule was driver and shotgun had to stay awake and the guys in the back could nap) - finally stopped in outside of Tucson to let everyone sleep.

Also stopped in LA to sleep, then drove to Vegas and slept, then drove to Hoover Dam and Grand Canyon before driving straight back without stopping for sleep.

Was the most awesome and yet the most awful 5 days I've ever spent in my life. Put in over 4700 miles.
