      Driving capital city to capital city, Sydney to Canberra or melb to Canberra are the only semi reasonable distances. Everywhere else it’s a full day driving minimum even to an adjacent state. Ymmv tho.

        Lol, y’all think Americans don’t know about road trips? My family drove from Florida to Canada in a day. And it sucked.

        Granted, it wasn’t the heat blasted hellscape that most of Australia is. But it still sucked

        You realize America is pretty large, right? And that we may visit people who don’t live in our towns? My mother lives in the same state as me and we’re almost 300 miles apart.

      If you want to stop along the way, sure. If you are just doing it direct, you’re insane.

        Well, like, that’s a bit far for a single day drive, but not out of bounds. Particularly if you have two drivers and can switch, it seems pretty normal?

          Fair enough but after renting a car and paying for fuel you might as well just fly and then you don’t lose a whole day.

    I mean, if you pick two places in America that are close and two places in Oz that aren’t. New York City to Los Angeles is a 41 hour drive
