I can drive for 16 hours and not leave my hometown if I drive slow enough
Meanwhile, the Canadians pull over after an 8-hour drive inside a single province of Ontario knowing they have two more days of this if they only drive 8 hours a day…
Canada has entered the chat.

Alaska has entered the chat
lol! I remember when I was up there and my friend and I wanted to go visit that mountain that we saw in the distance. We gave up after driving over an hour and realizing we were not closer to that mountain.
That US route is chosen very carefully, most of those 6 states have 7 hour routes entirely within them (and Michigan corner to corner is 10 lol)
US is roughly 48 driving hours, coast to coast.
I’ve driven cross country 4 times and the fastest I’ve done it solo was 3 days, it’s a little faster with a driving partner and sleeping in the car.
Yeah depends on where you start and finish but you can probably get coast to coast in 35-40 hours
That same route is 5h49m by train btw
Though booking it on the day is kinda dumb expensive (>120€) but with current fuel prices prob cheaper anyway
