    Drove my chicago area to cave city KY picked up a car which I loaded myself back in my hotshot days then from there down to Houma LA, dropped of the car which was a white 68 Lincoln continental got my cash turned around and drive until I was between springfield IL and bloomington IL on I-55 before I slept. I had so much caffine in my body and smoked so many ciagrettes I threw up all over the groud right outside my truck. I have never done that since then.

    The longest I have gone just in my pickup no trailer was from 29 palms left on a friday at 1800 or 6 PM and got home in Naperville IL after I dropped my buddy off in Chicago (He didnt have a license so he didnt drive) at a little after midnight. Now keep in mind I did not haull ##### going home fastest I went was maybe 76 or 77 through NM and AZ and on the OK TP. Just cruised in my powerstroke and only stopped for fuel which is about every 4-450 miles.

    When I got out of the army I left Ft Irwin Ca and drove to Anderson IN straight through. Only stopping for gas, restroom and food. In a commercial vehicle I have drove 11 hours straight before, but I don't like to do that.

    Gallup, NM POE after a ten hour penalty box stay to Nashville, IL. I don't remember how many hours, but it was over 1200 miles. I think it might took me 22 hours or so. I did have a fuel stop in there somewhere too. No stops other than that though.

    I was wandering if someone was going to call B.S on the cali to pen. run in 29 hrs. Longest run I made was st paul Mn to chattanooga tn. It was 20 or 22 hrs. I can't remember which.It was at the time the plane with the playboy executives crashed at Ohare. I went through there just about when it happened. Was driving a 7400 White with a 250 cummings. I was going home. That was a long day. I did stop for fuel
