144 miles on I-90/NYS Thruway from Exit 55 (US 219) south of Buffalo to Exit 38 (CR 57) north of Syracuse.

If I ever have opportunity to use Exit 7 (Story Avenue/Mellwood Avenue) in Louisville, that will extend west all the way to Exit 113 (Lanesville) in Indiana.

Seeing this thread bump reminds me that I can update my list to extend eastward to the join/split of I-64 and I-77 in downtown Charleston.


Government would be tolerable if not for politicians and bureaucrats.

The Mass Pike has been good to a number of us in this thread. I have a 154-mile stretch on I-90, from Exit 8 in NY (NY 43/N Greenbush) to Exit 123 in MA (I-95). I am missing the next few exits going east (including Exit 123B, which has only been a separate offramp for a few years) and Exits 7 and 5A in the Albany area going west... knocking off those two would get me west to Exit 32 on the Thruway, which would be a pretty good run.

For now, I-90 is narrowly beat out by I-87, where I have everything from Exit 14A on the Thruway (Garden State Pkwy) to Exit 16 on the Northway (Ballard Rd), for 166 miles.

No Mass Pike for me. My longest is likely everything between (but not including) exits 223 and 293 on I-25 in CO, totaling 70 miles.

If counting I-35E as part of I-35, every exit from Clear Lake to Duluth (284 miles). If not counting it, every exit on I-35 from Columbus to Duluth (132 miles). I'm not sure if I have taken every exit on 35W.

AASHTO attributes 28.5% of highway inventory shrink to bad road fan social media posts.

Longest is I-15 from CA-18 in Victorville CA to NV-161 in Jean NV, 158 miles inclusive. Counting between the two exits I haven't used, Nisqualli Rd in Victorville and Sloan Rd in Sloan, that would be 173 miles exclusive.

Second would be I-8 from its west end to CA-111, 118 miles inclusive, .

Thinking about exits for the new lowest number thread gave me a better idea where I might stand on this one. I-87 and I-90 are my contenders.

I-90: Thruway Exit 36 for I-81 to Mass Pike Exit 94 (old 10A) for MA 146.  That looks to be about 267 miles.
I-87: Northway Exit 23 for Warrensburg to Thruway Exit 15 for I-287 South.  About 176 miles.

There's a good chance each of these could be extended in both directions with a better memory of my travels, but I don't specifically recall taking the next exit in each direction for these.

I doubt there are any other lengthy stretches that come close to these two for me.

To the best of my knowledge, mine would be a 117-mile stretch between Exit 7 and Exit 21B on I-87/NYS Thruway.

The ones that I can think of:

1. I-64 (VA), Exits 118AB (US 29) - Exit 136 (US 15): ~18 Miles
2. I-295 (VA), Exits 34 (SR-615) - Exit 43 (N I-95): ~9 Miles
