Can confirm. When we moved back to Colorado from Austin, we drove all day at 55mph (truck was speed limited) which was about 13 hours, and we were still in Texas. It was very disheartening.

Try tiny Norway with 6m people, you can drive 1 day 18 hours (almost 3000km)from the southwest to the northeast, shortest route.
