    For comparison, Bellingham, WA to Key West, FL. Same country, 2 days without stops.

      I tried Brazil. Got 79h going East to West from Recife to Cruzeiro do Sul and 90h going South to North from Chuí to Oiapoque. Granted, our roads aren’t the best but you’re still looking at over 5000km of travel either way.

          You can’t drive from north to south america! Look up Darien Gap

            Sounds like we need to remedy that, tunnel through the Gulf of Mexico or some bridges across the gap’s rivers, which is cooler?

          Depends where you’re starting in Alaska most likely. There are major areas that are not connected to the rest of North America by road, only boat/ferry where Google might not include that.
