10 years before. Slept on a park bench after riding 900 miles to Cody, Wy that day.......No "next town" there either.
We will be in the New England area. There is always another town just down the road. Heck in some of those states you can drive all the way to the other side of the state in an hour or less. There are long stretches in the west where is in many hours to the next town.

We drove U.S. Route 50 in Nevada on past trips and that is remote and lonely.
