I feel like in a slow governed truck, you're basically forced to drive longer hours to make up for the miles you lose only being able to go 61 max.
With that said I usually drive 10 hours regularly before I get violated
whats the longest you have drove without stopping?

Crusader66 and Xzay Thank this.

Longest run was in a personal pickup truck with my ex back in 2006.
We went from Burton Ohio to New Haven Connecticut taking the scenic route, meaning 90 East rather than 80.
Unfortunately it took us about 14 hours between fuel stops food stops bathroom breaks construction zone and backed up toll booths.
Got to the Walmart in new haven and slept for about 4 hrs before heading out to get food and meet up with some old friends.
I have to say that sleeping in the driver's seat of Chevy S10 Xtreme is not something I would care to ever do again. -
1200 kilometers in my half ton. Stopped twice for fuel and a piss.

Too #### far.
There is not enough United States to make me stop for a nap some trips.
This was back in the day of paper logs. Imaginary trips. I don't worry about that sort of thing anymore. There is no point in being specific because there were many different kinds of trips. One in particular would be a overnight between PA and OK and a weekend between say Kansas and California. Half a week between Yakima and east coast one way. You can always get some sleep next week as they say.Crusader66 Thanks this. -
But when they stop I'm sure they'll respond.AM14 Thanks this. -

Longest trip I remember in a truck was from Beaver Oklahoma, (Panhandle), to Arlington Washington, (North of Seattle). Seems like it was 32 or 36 hrs, that was back in '91. I use to regularly do Delaware to Oklahoma, (1450 miles), non stop in my 4 wheeler. Behind the wheel is the most relaxing, comfortable place I can think of.
