Looks like 20 (had to write them out to count): Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, Texas, Michigan, Chicago, Wisconsin, Colorado, Wyoming, California, Washington (state), Tennessee, Iowa, Ohio, Nebraska, Missouri, Nevada
O and Puerto Rico, but I don't know if you are counting US territories
Washington, D.C., Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Vermont, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Maine, California, Illinois, Nevada, North Carolina, Florida, Georgia, Missouri, Hawaii, (21)
All but Oklahoma! We are going cross country via train then camping the national parks with the boys next summer so we want to get the passport thing for them too.
My parents took us on a road trip when I was a kid, so that knocked about 10 off right there, then DH and I road tripped it when we moved from CA to AR so I got another 10 there. Add in some miscellany tracked and I think I'm in the low 30s.
I love road tripping and would love to take the boys on one to the east coast. I've actually never been further East than I am now (AR).

I didn't stop to count them all.. but I know it is in the 25 range. When we were kids, my parents took all 5 of us on a cross country adventure - driving from Cleveland to Seattle, down the coast and back. We were gone for a month and stayed/camped in a lot of states on the way. We all have really good memories of that trip.
Hmmm with the edit I think I'd probably have to knock 5-6 states off since we just drove through them. But I took a picture of every "welcome to" sign so I feel like they count!
I'm still counting Nebraska I drove though the entire state and it was sooooooooooo boring.
That's my Kansas. I actually had to pull over and go in a basement of a motel because tornado sirens went off while we were driving. It was such a cliche. Everyone down there was concerned about running out of cigarettes and barefoot. I had never been out of the northeast at that point and I was like, "I'm going to die with these people!" I'm sure there are nice normal Kansasas (?) out there but they were not in Oakely.
I think 15 or so, which isn't bad for a Seattleite! Growing up we took a road trip every summer but being so far away from things in WA it's hard to get a ton of states. It blows my mind that East Coast-ers can drive through numerous states in a day. We too did the National Park thing and saw a lot of really really cool things that make me a Jeopardy badass.
Oh gosh, this one is hard. When we were young, my parents used to drive to Florida and stop overnight on the way, but I don't remember which states we stayed in for certain. Here are the states I know I have spent at least two overnights in and/or drive into on a regular basis:
-Florida -Alaska -Nevada -Washington (state, not D.C.) -New Jersey -New York -Delaware -Pennsylvania -Virginia -Maryland
Like I said above, I am pretty sure we stayed overnight in the Carolinas and Georgia while driving to Florida, but I'm not going to count all of them since we didn't really do anything there other than sleep there. I have also been in several airports that don't count!
It's pretty pitiful; my states list is about the same length as my foreign country list. I really should see more of the U.S.!
ETA: I voted 11-15, counting the ten definites and figuring on at least one of my I-think-sos.
Hawaii, Washington state, Oregon, California, Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Maine. I think that's it, so 19. Planning to add a couple more when we road trip to Mount Rushmore and Yellowstone in the fall, although most of the states we hit will be repeats
Re: How many different states have you been to? (Including the one you live in)
A family I'm close with (who live in Canada) have been in every state except Alalska and Hawaii. I think it took them less than 20 years.
Random: my dad has been to every state minus Alaska and Vermont.
