Capitalism is awesome.

Stephen Von Worley calculated the longest distance you would have to travel to get to a McDonalds in the continental US and found:

Between the tiny Dakotan hamlets of Meadow and Glad Valley lies the McFarthest Spot: 107 miles distant from the nearest McDonald’s, as the crow flies, and 145 miles by car!

Apparently no matter where you are in the country, you about a two and half hour drive to McDonalds. To be honest I think this would of been interesting if the longest distance happened to be shorter than 145 miles. If you could always be a one hour drive from a McDs no matter where in the continental US, now that would truly be an awesome achievement.
