East coast driving is hardcore, and this is coming from someone who is hardcore. I prefer to drive, but my limit is anything east of the Rockies. I can drive 24 hours straight, but anything further I'm better off flying (and I hate flying).

I once flew to Kauai for a week vacation and packed all my clothes and laptop and sunscreen, etc in a backpack, and all my SCUBA equipment (minus tank and weight belt) in my carry-on. Sure, I'm not transporting a kayak or surfboard or anything else huge, but I can get creative when taking advantage of the "included" luggage rules. If I could drive to Hawaii, I'd still fly even though I hate it.
