The farthest you'd drive for a weekend trip?

[Bernadine]

How far would you go?  I'm thinking 3-4 hours.

4 hours.

We've driven 7 hours to Santa Fe for a long weekend. So... 7 hours But, everything is really spread out in the West, so you're in for a drive to get anywhere.

[lightbulbsun]

Well, I'm driving 5 hours to visit a friend in a couple of weeks. That's probably the farthest, except for a wedding or something like that.

I think 4 is perfect, however, we drove 6.5 to Cape Cod for a Friday-Sunday trip.  It was a little too long but it was a great weekend!

[DotAndBuzz]

With kids? 4 hours.

Without kids? 6-7

[leeann]

I'd say 3 hours. We have driven over 8 multiple times to see the IL's, but given a choice, anything over 3 hours, I'd rather fly.

[jane6672]

3-4 hours.

For a long weekend (Friday or Monday off), I'd go up to 5ish hours.

[luckyval]

I'd drive up to 5 hours

[Deleted]

5 hours and then I start getting loopy.

[jane6672]

Oh - if it's a lovely scenic drive, I don't mind longer drives. Long boring flat drives are too tiring.

[partiallysunny]

4 hours.

Maybe 6 for a three day weekend.

[Cricket0619]

4 to 6.

[cheeseandcrackers]

yeah, several hours, depends on occasion

[pantsparty]

5 hours.

[rex]

7.

[papie]

3 hours. It is more than i need to get me to QC, Ottawa, Burlington, Tremblant...

For 3-4 days I'd drive 5-6 hours.

[urbancowgirl]

3 or 4 hours. Any more than that and I'd look into flying.

[Cioccolato]

5-6 hours

[sawyerthedestroyer]

3-4 hours.

[gnomesweetgnome]

We regularly drive 5.5 hours to visit our in laws for the weekend, so I'd say 6-7 would be my absolute max.

[janiejones]

we did 14 hours to Philly in August. it was a bit crazy. 10 or 12 would have been fine though.

[tigress]

4 is about the most I do willingly. My hometown is about 6.5 hours away so I have done that if I have to, but I try to avoid it for just a weekend, or at least take an extra day off or something.

[daisyheadmaizie]

I think 4 is ideal, but I would do up to 8.

[Muddled]

6. Every 5 years, this seems to decrease by an hour.

[bab]

4-5 hours

[sillygoosegirl]

We drove 7 hours each way to see the eclipse last spring. We weren't planning to go so far, but it ended up being necessary to get out from under the cloud cover. We also drove 3 hours in the opposite direction the exact same weekend to see my nephew's production of "Much Ado About Nothing." It was a lot of driving, but I wasn't willing to miss either one!

Normally 5 hours one way is our upper limit.

Two hours. Anything further than that and I will fly. I live right next to the airport, so even if I have to drive an hour once I get to my destination I still come out ahead if I fly on trips longer than 2 hours.

[walterismydog]

I love driving and road trips. I've been on weekend trips where the whole thing was driving to different places all over three states.

[morningmania]

I would say 8 hours, if it was a long weekend maybe 10.
