I drive straight through between South Jersey and Orlando regularly. Overnight is way better, in my opinion. I prefer to leave around 7pm on a Wednesday night, and it usually takes around 14 hours including a few quick stops for gas/bathroom/stretching.
I drove from NJ to Orlando during the day on Friday 12/2 and it took 17 hours. Longest it’s taken me is 18 hours when part of 95 was closed (in SC I think) due to a storm a few years ago. Overnight the longest trip has been around 15 hours.
I always put my destination in Waze and go whatever way it says. Usually it’s 295 in NJ and then 95 the whole way, with one or two beltways (295) around DC and/or Jacksonville.
