but you can drive 550 miles without stopping although using ACC is still getting help that's some serious bladder and kidney strain though.
Along with wife and 2 kids. Trained bladders!! I actually wouldn’t have mind stopping but wife couldn’t commit to in and out at Bucees so kept on trucking.
I should’ve used the term “iDrove” meaning I wasn’t being chauffeured from the driver’s seat. 🙃
The help killed my momentum whenever someone jumped in front of me so I had to use the skinny pedal to bypass it until they moved out of the way😆

Well gave in and made a stop. Got a feeling may be here a while.🥴
355 miles to go. DTE showing 298. I didn’t park at the ⛽️pump. I need to average no lower than 15mpg to make it home otherwise gonna be a 2nd stop which I’m hoping to avoid!!
Edit: I’m at 3/4 tank. I’m about to top off at Bucees because I’m about to haul a…💨🏁
What I’ve averaged so far.

Drove into a head way pretty much the entire way. If I was in something smaller, it would’ve blown us all over the road.
Averaged 14.3mpg on the final leg. Couple in Silverado followed me for at least 100 miles until I’m guessing they exit for fuel stop. He was like my shadow. If I initiated lane change, he did as well
ACC much of the way but idc how it reacts when someone jumps in front of you so I give it a little pedal just so it won’t create a huge gap welcoming other cars between me and the car in front of me.
1135 miles total trip. 356 miles after leaving Bucees.
although using ACC is still getting help 
that's some serious bladder and kidney strain though.
