It's not so ridiculous. Before I had enough work experience to have a job in my local city, I commuted 45 miles/1hr one-way to the next city that actually had tech companies. That was 2 hours commuting total, for 3 years. My roommate climbs cell phone towers. His company is located about 45 minutes to an hour away. Granted, though, he usually only makes the commute once per day then is on the road traveling the rest of the week. Living in the middle of nowhere sucks.
