You definitely have to do quite a bit of preparing and planning to do so.

    The U.S.A produces enough oil to sustain us at a "fighting stance". The oil we do import is only done for reasons of economics (it's cheaper) and reserves our own resources for when the outside sources become "problematic".

    You can travel 4.5 days from Virginia to Los Angeles, if you plan your route properly, but it's usually 5 to 7 days with both drivers stopping to sleep at the same time. Usually, you want 2 primary drivers + a 3rd (3rd usually can't be trusted without GPS maps)😂

    Actually, the U.S. was never prepared to go to war in most of the 20th century. After every war, WW1, WW2, Korea, we stood down our armed forces. It took us some time to ramp up our military in trained men and materiel for the next one. We vowed to never being in that position again. Vietnam was the first time we had the military ready to go.

    New yorker here, I regularly make trips to columbus ohio, and it takes about 22 hours to leave my house and come back, and thats WITHOUT breaks, besides fuel and maybe a 10 to 15 minute stop at a diner or a mcdubs sometimes. My dad drove a full sized car made of legos from upstate NY to LA for the Cars 2 movie premiere event in about 40 hours if I remember right. Maybe 50. Texas alone can take like 15 hours to cross from its furthest points. You mentioned 40 miles is long distance - that was half of my daily commute to work when I was in my early 20s going from Glens Falls to Latham. To me, a long distance trip is over 400 miles, one way 😂
    Edit: we also probably have enough oil reserves to supply the rest of the world for at least a century, with serious rationing in mind. We probably have enough untapped oil to supply the world for the next millennia.

    @14:52 To respond to the question regarding oil sourcing, we import a lot of oil from places like Niger and Ecuador and a dozen other places but that's a matter of policy, not need. We have money, so we burn other peoples' oil and keep our own. It's estimated there is more oil under the Dakotas (two of our states in the middle bit) than Saudi Arabia had before they started pumping.

    There are highways and freeways in the United States. Freeways otherwise known as Interstate are roads that go from state to state. There are multiple interstates, ones that go east to west and north to south. If you were to drive from one coast to the other (San Francisco to NYC) it would take about 48 hours straight through. The speed limit on the highways vary but rarely go under 65mph or 104kph to 75mph or 120kph. That distance is roughly 2600 miles or close to 4200km.

    25 miles? That's an afternoon shopping day here. The U.S. is currently the largest producer of oil, and has been for probably over a decade. And we haven't even come close to tapping all our sources for it. East and West Coast is pretty much untouched for sea drilling. We've got untapped supplies in Alaska, and other areas. And that doesn't even go into technology to reopen expired sites to get every last drop available that couldn't be conventionally. The tech is there and in use already. Hydraulic fracturing. And the U.S. is one of if not the largest natural gas producer as well. Although Russia probably has more potential supplies there.
    China's navy is by sheer numbers, outnumbering the U.S., but most of it is much, much smaller coastal patrol ships.

    Much oil is from the USA comes from within. We keep our overage in what is called the reserves. It allows us to carry on for awhile without any importation.

    The USA keeps oil on reserve and buys other countries' oil before using their own at the right prices of course. Big oil fields are in Alaska, Texas, and other states.
