Question How Far Have You Driven?

How far have you driven your SSP Mustang? What is the longest distance you have been on the road in your Mustang?

My longest was from my hometown, Lufkin, Texas to Del Rio, Texas. This is about an eight (8) hour drive. About 500 miles or so.

I would say I have drove the FHP approx. 340 miles one way. I plan on going to Carlisle this week so that will be 435.95 miles according to mapquest.

Sorry, No long distance story for my ssp's yet, since i have only had both for a couple months. Lol

I don't know if daily driven distance counts as my USPS is a daily driven and cared for ssp. kept in the shade as much as possible!
My work is only a 6-mile straight shot for me but the USPS has put on 1000 miles since it landed in Tx.

Since we live off the bottom of the map , we do look forward to a northern trip in the USPS , maybe a car event?

Roman - This is a good thread! I've been on several long drives...always when bringing an SSP home.

Albany, New York to Detroit, Michigan = even thru Canada it was a 12 hour drive (over 700 miles). This was with the 1993 Missouri State Hwy. Patrol SSP.

Raleigh, North Carolina to Detroit, Michigan = approx 10 hour drive (over 600 miles). This was with the 1990 North Carolina State Hwy. Patrol SSP.

Minoqua, Wisconsin to Detroit Michigan = 10 hour drive (over 600 miles). This was with the Minnesota State Patrol SSP. Next summer I'm going to drive this one to the Twin Cities for a few diff't activities. If I remember correctly when we moved from Minneapolis to Detroit our final drive here was 12 hours.

All were fun (but very long and tiring) drives with the SSP's. You really get to know them on a drive like that. A 12 hour drive is really at my upper limit and one I don't really every want to duplicate if I can avoid it.
