Get plenty of sleep before he starts out.  When I was in college Vivarin was a popular pill for staying awake.

Just roll the window down now and again. Stop when you need to and take a piss break, have a little stretch and get the blood flowing. I can drive for a couple hours at a time but I eventually need to get out and piss and just walk around.

Just got back from a little road trip myself. There was a huge blanket of fog and we couldn't see 10 feet in front of the vehicle. The fucking TomTom GPS was way different than my Magellen GPS so it really fucked me up. Surprisingly got right to my destinations without any difficulty though. Plan ahead, chew some gum, put some good beats on your MP3 or a blank CD, etc. Helps to have someone driving with you to keep you company.

Best to wise up, stop and get some sleep before he kills himself or others.

I drive more miles than ten of you GetBiggers combined each month and am smart enough (just barely) to pull over to a rest-stop along the highway and get at least 15 minutes with my eyes closed shut whenever I feel the need to do so.

Stay awake by thinking of all the things Keith Jones has done in his life!!

Rest stops (a.k.a. the "pickle park") are for homosexual men.

cocaine sucks ass, after you snort it you come down 2 minutes later, and even if you keep doing it after 10 lines you feel like fucking shit!  I dissagree highly.  Weakass drug. 8)

Meth.

If he wants to stay legal, ephedrine/caffeine is a possibility, but as with anything, nowhere near as effective as illegal options.
Maybe the falcon himself can give some tips to 240 to brew some in his kitchen sink.

I live in a big ass house now.   sold all the trailers in 2003-2004 when the market bubble became obvious to anyone with a brain.

Besides, meth is so 'titus 2005'.  I mean, really.  That shit makes your teeth fall out.  People in trailer parks do more drinking that drugs.  Old milwaukee and whatnot.

My method today: Drink a ton of fluids...if you're stopping to piss every hour or two you ain't sleeping.

You'll piss your pants I promise. Unless you got a 12 incher flacid, how are you gonna shake your prick driving 75 miles an hour down the road, while trying to fit the head into that little hole?

Not to mention that you'll likely easily fill the can, with more to spare.

You need to either

A. Piss your pants or

B. Quit being a lazy fuck and pull over the vehicle for a couple minutes and pee on the side of the road.

This is actiually genuine advice Rob.

If you want him to arrive safely make him take breaks. maybe plan a stop where he can get a few hours sleep. No point in trying to stay awake when he is tired. Will maybe fall asleep at the wheel or lose concentration etc.

Air coffee etc are only short term solutions. Let him take his time and stay well rested.

thanks.  i'll be on the cell with him every few hours throughout the night to check on him.

I have used an empty fast food cup to urinate once, while on the interstate driving alone.  I was late for something 60 miles from my house, it was dark out, pouring violently and I was dressed very nicely for the event.  A man's gotta do...

no way.  I have a big truck.  Put the seat fwd as far as possible, hit cruise, stood up juuuus a little bit and just hung low into the XL cup.  I was a little proud of my move, despite my disgusting act.

Pretty impressive, you probably had to of least used some napkins around the base just to pick up some leakage before tucking it back in.

I advised against, but I guess they give them to 8-year olds, and college kids are taking them by the handful.  he's got a 5-hour energy for 3 or 4 am if he starts nodding off.

I was so wired on a 6 hour drive I thought I would never crash.

240, I know a couple guys that used adderall and the effects they described sounded like a healthier version of what I felt with "5 hour".  They did mention cotton mouth but I think most stimulants have that effect at some point.

I hear Adrafinil is just as good as Modafinil and is LEGAL.

This is a bodybuilding site and I can't believe no one thought of this.  Have him bring some 20# dumblells so when he get tired he can pull over and pump up his arms and shoulders and do some calesthenics to wake him up.
