There is a large portion of land in the US (area, not population) that is in the same boat as you - minus the kangaroos.
Challenges in my area and others:
Cell reception is not just poor, it often doesn't exist.
GPS on my phone and car drop now and then. Maybe to many trees?
Roads are of varying condition and can change anytime. Some you know not to go on in certain weather, etc.
Road maps are still wrong. I've fixed the ones I care about on Google. Some roads don't exist, others have addressing issues that are so bad it will put you in the wrong end of the county.
I'd enjoy a self driving car, but they are a long ways off in my area and many others. I'm sure it will happen, but it is a whole different world than a city.
I don't know that making it work in the middle of nowhere is worse than a city, but it is a different set of problems and manufacturers will of course target the cities first. So to you in the outback (not the Subaru), you aren't alone. Most discussion about what life is like in the US doesn't apply to me either.
