Longest Non-stop (Other than Gas and bathroom breaks) 1850 Miles. Caribou, Maine to Bonner Springs, Kansas. Wouldn't do it again, but had to get there and had a very short time frame to do it. I usually make the trip from Ludington, Michigan to Presque Isle, Maine non-stop. That is about 1400 Miles give or take a hundred. I never go through Canada because of the border crossings and high gas prices.

Longest trip driven by myself was Caribou, Maine to Los Angeles, CA. A distance of about 3400 miles. Stayed out 2 nights

Driving through Canada to Alaska we were planning to stop in Prince George but all of the lodging was no vacancy. It was 10PM by then but we kept driving. I drove until 2AM and then my Dad took over driving until 8AM when we arrived in Fort Nelson. We got gas and breakfast and drove to Watson Lake, Yukon where we stopped for the day. 1,414 miles or about half of the entire trip

I drove from Seattle, WA to Price, UT and slept in Price Canyon, which is 960 miles. I believe I made it out of Seattle around 10ish AM and got to Price Canyon around 2ish AM. Not sure... Then woke up at six and continued down to Durango, CO: another 275 miles.

Minneapolis to Rapid City all by myself. 9 hours and about 650 miles. Pretty good, I'm only 18!

Laguna Beach CA to Ann Arbor MI in 54 hours. Short stop in Las Vegas and short stop at Grandmas in Illinois. I am not sure how far in the longest one day stint, Probably 22 hours times 80 mph. Figure about two hours for food and gas stops. I guess that would be something over 1600 miles.
