Even in the dense eastern states, 100-150 miles is considered viable for a
day trip
Could I pour some oil on this fire by saying that, here in the far north of Scotland, we consider the 240 mile round trip to Inverness to be a fairly piffling little journey and the 440 mile round trip to Aberdeen to be quite doable in a day.
So, even here in the UK, not everyone thinks 100 miles is a long way :)
