How far of a trip is that?
I mean I knew texas was big, but I guess I'm just realizing HOW BIG.
East to west missouri, border to border is about 6 hour drive on I44 or I70, I've done it several times in an 8 hour work day. Noth to south there is not an interstate and takes about 8-10 hours depending. Done it once, hated it! North Missouri is flat and boring. I hated seeing a corn field for about a year after that trip.
Edited to add:
You can draw a line from Kansas city to Jefferson city, to ST. Louis. Thats my boundry if I can keep from it. I dont want to go North of that.

Thats about a 16 hour drive! Alright let me put this into perspective, I drove from here in the middle of missouri, to Havenlock North Carolina (about 20 mins from the ocean) I covered 1/2 of missouri, Illinois, Ketucky, West Virginia, Virginia and North Carolina in 18 hours......
I crossed 1/2 the country in the same time it takes to cross Texas?

Well, I'm sure that was an average time. I know it takes almost a full day to cross this big *** state.

Mapquest says,
Texarkana, TX US - El Paso, TX US
Total Est. Time: 12 hours, 7 minutes
Total Est. Distance: 814.91 miles
Thats still a hell of a long way with out leaving a state.
