Just for funsies I looked it up and Miami FL to Seattle WA is a 48 hour drive. Longest I found within the continental US upon a quick googling of recognizable cities.

I did a similar diagonal route across Canada. 84 hours it says.

Thats a bit more than the Alaska to Miami drives I found. I think there one where you can drive all the way to an arctic research base in a similar timeframe.

You can't drive to Alaska without entering Canada
