        Funny, we have similar distances in India it seems but with travel times on Google Maps mentioned in days instead of hours thanks to our excellent roads

          Everything’s bigger in Texas, except WA that shit is huge…!

          Initially I did Kununurra to Eucla which is approx 40hrs, but you can do it in 38 hrs if you go through the territory and SA. In the efforts of keeping things fair and saying in the same state such as the OP, Esperance seemed to prove the point. There’s defs longer commutes, but shy of triple seemed to be enough to prove a point.

          PS love the username

            Kununurra to Eucla is 40 hours, suprisingly it’s 3 hours quicker to go through northern territory and south Australia.

            Cheers, thought I’d let them know who they’re arguing with.

        If you think that Australia is huge, you should play with navigation in Russia.

          I did call that out in one of my replies, WA is massive, but Russia has an even bigger state, no idea how easy it is to drive it…!

            Depends on what state you choose. There may be no road between destinations at all.
