    I drove 12 hours and have for 6 of the 9 MM's... It's worth every minute, and every gas station burrito and tractor trailor I dodge and every crappy antique mall I stop at

      I gave up on the Antique malls in 2008, there are only so many McDonald's Beanie Babies and Nascar junk a man can see.

        3 years in a row now from the Bronx, the drive is pretty reasonable we usually leave around noon or so on Friday and arrive by 6 - 6:30, this year Jersey held us up between the Weather and the traffic it put us 2 hours off the pace we arrived at 8:30. Next year I'm gonna Leave Thursday afternoon or early Friday morning

          Do you count down and back or just down?

            This year about 8 hours due mostly due to the rain during the second part of the trip and my desire to stop more frequnetly because of it.
            Normal ride for me from northern NJ is a little over 7 hours in previous years.

              One way please. I'll assume to double it.

                Do I get a prize for travelling the furthest? This year the airline routed us from Portland to New York and then back to Pittsburgh!

                    I think the first option of the poll should be read as under 2 hours.

                      I chose that option, just to make sure the data stayed as accurate as possible.

                        agreed, although I kind of think Justin is the anomaly here.

                            True, but there is a certain appeal to having a favorite toy show right in my backyard.
