OK, there are those who drive leisurely and those who drive to get there :)
SF to Purina is about 2,000 miles and 30 hours driving at the legal
speed or however Google figures it out. I calculate things differently,
i.e. 50mph average so that is 20 hours of driving, worse case, 24 hours,
an easy 2 day drive. You can be pretty efficient if you use the
restroom when getting gas and bring food with or hit the takeout and eat
on the road. When traveling with someone else who can help with
driving, you can drive straight through, not pay for a room, and get
there in a day. It is a choice to take three days vs. two or even one.
LA to purina is 150 miles close than SF so that is 3 hours less driving
time.
Not an endorsement of a central location, but the population center of
the US is Plato, MO, 120 miles southwest of Purina. 20-30 years ago,
the population center was Purina.
Just saying...
