I h8 driving
 

I just did 22 hours of it in a 24 hour period (stopped thrice) to get back to NJ from MO.

Now I want to die. Plus I saw that new will ferrell movie, that contributed greatly to wanting to die.

Looks like there are lots of great new posts, wish I wasn't so tired.

See you tomorrow, folks, ;)

Was going to gripe about my drive down to LA for all of 6 hrs but nvm. You sir have won at 22. Congrats! ;)

Damn! The most I've done was 18 out of 36. How didya stay awake?

buck up!
 

Listening to you guys complaining about driving makes me REALLY APPRECIATE my crew in 24 hour bike racing. Thanks Mark, Dan, and Joe.

Welcome Home SVOboy.

makes my 8 hour ride to school seem like child's play

How many times didja fill up? 1, 2?

I filled up before leaving, stopped 8 hours in, stopped to fill up (and sleep for two hours), and stopped 4 hours past then, then blasted on home. I didn't really have any trouble staying awake or concentrating, which I found odd, but yeah, twas an epic drive. I'll enter in my fuel logs here pretty soon. :)

Like winters when I work all day Friday, drive 8 hours round trip to pick up my daughter, then Sunday afternoon drive 8 hours round trip again to take her back. But shes worth it.

man driving my 78 chevy camper from NY to CO at 45/50 mph 54 hours driving 5 hours of food, gas, and sleep. talk about fun.

You obviously didn't have a female in the car with you. That should be added to your 100+ Hypermiling Tips.

(And before anyone gets upset, please understand that I'm not bashing females here. I'd rather ride with my wife and daughter than alone. I will, however, use more gas as we tour the restrooms of America on the way. It's a fact of life - get used to it.)

SVOBoy -

Maybe 10+ years ago I drove from the southwest corner of Colorado (Mesa Verde) to LA for a friend's graduation (700+ miles). But, I got to tag team with my friend driving. We were worn to a frazzle, but we made it, *and* had time to stop at Monument Valley.

I'd never try that today,
