Longest for me was Cincinnati, Ohio to Knoxville, Tennessee and back.

On that Trip, I pushed it to 115. I don't remember the mileage but one tank made it there. I filled up as I was leaving and made it back.

586 Miles, Phoenix, AZ to Roswell, NM. It was supposed to take 9.5 hours, but it turned into 12 hours of driving.

I hauled the car for 2,101 miles. Does that count? lol

That is correct my friend. The G will be sitting in the garage for a year. I will be away on business for a while.

I followed two friends in a porsche cayenne turbo to whitetail resort 2hrs away for some snowboarding and after they raced nd crushed an audi TT on rt 5 I had to push the TC to the limiter at 127 tocatch back up to them which took me 5 minutes even after they slowed down for me. and for the longest road trip ive driven to see friends at Virginia Tech which is 8hrs round trip. needless to say I didnt go above 75 cus the whole trip is on 81 which is covered in cops. TC is an amazing car for good long road trips for sure
