when I do the drive from lubbock tx to bakersfield CA or back I do it in one go... stopping only for gas, time my bathroom and food breaks to coincide with having to stop for gas.
takes 17 hours including breaks, baring no slowdowns.
I leave veeery early in the morning and arrive at night...
dont amp up on high amounts of caffiene all at once... I find a lower level maintained over time to work better... you dont have the drop offs when the caffiene starts wearing off.
if you have to pull over on the side of the highway, lock your doors and do a 20 minute power nap, its amazing how much that can help...
if you find yourself starting to drift to the side and hitting the ridges that make noise take a nap even if you dont feel particularly tired...
eat good high quality meals, more like subway over mcdonalds and stay hydrated, with water, even if it means more pee breaks... it'll help you stay awake and you will feel way less strungout from the road the next day.
