Long trip coming up
 

On 10/14, I am leaving Indianapolis early in the morning and hope to be in Kissimmee Florida by the end of the day. I'm returning on the 10/17. 993 miles, door-to-door. I'm driving the Fit and want to get decent mileage, but I don't want to be on the road for an eternity. I figure I'll just drive the speed limit and draft off trucks whenever possible.

As for staying awake, has anyone tried 5-hour energy? I don't normally take any stuff like that, but I don't want to fall asleep at the wheel, either.

I imagine you could get a large benefit from pulse & glide, if you want to do that much work.

Please don't be a danger on the road. If you're too tired just don't drive.

At 3/4 of the distance you can do a stop a walk a litle, jump and strech for few minutes to get oxygen to your brain. Dont eat too much you spend lots of energy digesting, and you will get sleepy.

you're headed VERY near my residence, let me know if you'd like to hook up.

5 hour energy does work. as a truck driver, i've tried them, and they seem to in fact keep one awake more than give "energy". energy is not an issue for me, and i suppose you don't really need energy for your app either.

i don't know if you have a Dollar Tree in Indy, but you can buy a similar product there made by a major supplement supplier(forgot the name) for, well, a dollar. the last i checked 5 hr energy, they were $3+.

Cool. Thanks.

I won't have my computer with me (no laptop), although I will have my phone with me. If you wanna meet up, PM me and I'll shoot you my phone #.

I'll only be around on Friday afternoon and maybe Saturday morning. I have the wedding Saturday afternoon and I'll be heading back Saturday night or Sunday morning.
