When I was in the Air Force in my young 20’s, with a job that didn’t require me to be on base on most weekends, I regularly drove the 3 hours each way to my parents’ house, sometimes by car and sometimes by motorcycle, routinely chalking up about 500 miles each weekend. It did not seem like a big deal then.
Now half a century has changed my view and I cringe at any trip taking more than a half hour. I haven’t been out of the county but about half a dozen times in the last 5 years, though the driving itself doesn’t bother me that much.
I’m probably gathering some moss.
A couple years ago I did a 3 week road trip from northern Wisconsin through Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, Montana, North Dakota, and Minnesota back to northern Wisconsin.

Yep as a kid, with my parents we would drive 8-10 hours to get to a Vacation destination. I have driven 6-7 hours for work.
Now a couple hours is a long trip, but I don’t do that much anymore… mostly it is the $$$$ that dictates the length of the trip.
This should be better worded than drive. As they want to know what length of time you would accept to go places
But also when these were written by a human and we were just kinda chatting about our lives vs providing information to be scraped. I had thoughts . But Meh

Depends on the destination.

Grocery store? 10 mins is too long.
