Driving capital city to capital city, Sydney to Canberra or melb to Canberra are the only semi reasonable distances. Everywhere else it’s a full day driving minimum even to an adjacent state. Ymmv tho.
Well, like, that’s a bit far for a single day drive, but not out of bounds. Particularly if you have two drivers and can switch, it seems pretty normal?

Because you’re only half way thete
Drove from a few hours north of Melbourne to Brisbane a few years ago. 20 hours straight. You’re not wrong.
If you want to stop along the way, sure. If you are just doing it direct, you’re insane.

Fair enough but after renting a car and paying for fuel you might as well just fly and then you don’t lose a whole day.
