it's actually not as bad as I thought it would be

Remember that mapping programs only give "travel time", not "total trip time." that 19 hour drive from NY to FL is 19 hours in the car, on the highway. Realistically, that's a 2-3 day trip.

FL to NV is, likewise, 37 hours on the highway. So, same as your office job for a week, but instead of working you're just driving in a car.
