Personally, anything over 3 hours I tend to fly if possible, even if it is theoretically longer overall. Airport has food, washrooms, Wi-Fi, lets me walk around, and lets me work on things. Between 3 hours in a car or 3 hours in an airport and 1 on the plane, I much prefer the airport. I have never really understood the hatred people have for airports.
