~14-15 hrs straight. Longboat Key, FL to Memphis. Done this twice. We would break it up and stay in either Tallahassee or Lake City on the way down and drive thru on the way home.

Gets a little old with young kids in the car.

I've driven from Columbia. SC to Littlerock, ARK on a dual tank of gas, in my pickup, nonstop and without stopping to take a leak, eat or gas-up. I-40

I've driven from coast to coast once but had to pull over for a nap and had to make several piss/eat/gas stops.

Several trips form Columbia to Colorado, Idaho, New Mexico to Elk Hunt in the Winnebago.

Drove to Omaha (about a 14 hour drive) and the only time I stopped was to fill up on gas once and it only took me 10 minutes.

I fricking hate hate HATE stopping on road trips

About 19 hours...Huntsville, AL to Raleigh-Durham, NC and back.

About 3-4 times a year me and my family make the 9 hr drive from Huntsville to Texarkana, TX to visit my wife's family. Just got back yesterday, as a matter of fact.

Portland, Oregon to Washington DC in 3 days in a 1991 standard Nissan pickup. Averaged 18 hours on the road. That was about 16 years ago. This summer gonna do a 19 hour trek from Austin, tx to Las Vegas... and I'm not planning to stop either.
