So there aren't any fuel stops or diners or anything along the massive roads? My car has a range of 400 miles, does that mean I wouldn't be able to drive it across Australia?

You either take extra tanks along or you stick to your most efficient speed (highest gear at low revs). Also, he said 60s of miles (100s of kms), so your 400 mile range could be split up in two or three fillups on the 872,2 mile trip.

Every couple of hundred kms yeah there is but in between just nothingness.

Just go on Gmaps and look at some of the roads and follow them, You will see how empty, Like the Great Northern Highway, Theres even points where the gmaps car has stopped.
