This is probably a repost of an old thread, but we need to update our files every so often.


Edit: To clarify, "visited" or "been to" can also include "lived in".

bullshit...i voted before i read the rules.
all due respect rainman, but **** this poll.

All of them except Alaska & Hawaii.

I run 150k miles a year OTR for 7-8 years with a 62mph truck.

Yeah I think driving through or into a state should count as "being there".

I stood on the four corners, so I been to four states at the same time, kind of cool. New Mexico, Colorad, Utah, & Arizona.

I'm figuring I've been to or drove through 12 states.

Living here in upstate NY I've gone way north I've gone way south but not very far west.

Someday I Will go to Arrowhead thats what will push me west one day.

A buddy of mine is a driver who goes past arrowhead a couple times a yr he says by car it takes approx 23 hours driving time.

The wife will of course fly for vacation but I dont see her saying sure lets fly to go see the Chiefs vs the Cardinals ..etc.
But someday I'm going to ride with my friend and finally get there.

Only 17 of them. Feels like I've been to a lot more than that,

[splatbass]

I've lived in Missouri, California, Virginia and Hawaii, and visited a total of 32 states. Want to visit the rest before I die.

[2bikemike]

I have been in every State, The only one I haven't slept in is New Hampshire. But I did eat and get gas there.

Ah. They must have Taco Bells there.

Why have twice as many people been to Delaware as Connecticut and Rhode Island and those other smaller eastern states? How does a person even end up in Delaware? As far as state locations go, it's a dead-end street.

I was driving up the coast from Virginia Beach. North through Virginia, Maryland, and Delaware, then west to pickup US-50, across the bay, through Annapolis, on past DC to my then home in Leesburg, VA. Much more scenic than I-64/I-95 through Virginia.

Also north on I-95 from DC area to NJ/NY goes right through Delaware, did it several times. I-95 is the major north/south highway. If you go from NY to Florida you can't help but pass through it.
