I don't have friends all over the country, and I submit that, if the adage "150 people" is true, no one has friends "all over the country".
I dislike driving through Texas, and so, most road trips involve McDonalds - the only time I eat the junk.
My car's inbuilt nav is 13 years out of date, so it knows major throughways but not, for instance, that the road I live on has its own interface to the "highway", and so on, up to restaurants. Phones are unreliable in a lot of the US, and at one point I had a spare phone with all of its storage dedicated to offline Google maps just so I wouldn't get stuck in the Rockies somewhere.
Microsoft used to sell trip planning software and those were the good old days.
