Fellow Tarheel here, and bud if it takes you "days" to drive to the nearest major city, you should have your car looked at. I drove from San Diego to Raleigh in 60 hours once.
Notice how that's almost three days
This example was provided as an estimated upper limit - you could drive to basically the furthest-away big city within 60 hours. Other cities would be substantially less than that, because that’s an upper limit.
Driving from a small town on the western tip of NC… let’s say Franklin, NC, to Washington DC takes only 8 hours... but driving to Knoxville, TN or Atlanta, GA would only take you 2 hours.
If that drive takes you “days” by car, you might have an issue.
