How long do you drive/tow in a day?
Just wondering how long you all drive in a day? My wife and I leaning towards a hard fast rule of 8 hours a day at the most.

It is whatever you can do. Different each day.
Biggie is I like to be in the bed by 11pm. Otherwise if you stay up too late driving then that ruins the next day, u either dont get enough sleep or you sleep late so lose any time gains you made driving late.
However, with cities and traffic you might need to keep driving to get past a city so you drive through at night rather than at rush hour the next morning. Timing can be a big factor depending where you are. Dallas/Ft Worth is one I like to get thru at night, and the NE esp NY city is great to pass thru at 2 or 3 am.
My record is 20 hours.
12-14 hrs is common when I'm going across.
6am to 11pm is my range, and I like to take a 30 min siesta in the middle of the day.
Drive, and when you feel sleepy that is your cue to stop. Driving sleepy is like being drunk. Not worth it.
For me the hours of when I normally go to bed is when I get sleepy, before or after that I am fine. I dont try to drug myself up to stay awake, I just go all natural and let my body dictate rather than caffiene late at night...
