Attitudes differ from place to place in the US. It may even have been here that I read about someone from Montana asking a friend from Rhode Island in hushed tones "It is true you can drive across the entire state in less than a day?".

It also depends on the use of the word day. I once drove from central Texas to central Michigan in just over 22 hours.

It’s widely recommended to take a break at least every two hours of driving.

That’s enough for me to regard a two hour drive as a “long drive,” in the context of a regular commute.
