How far is Missouri from Texas driving?

I’m going to have three months off between graduating high school and starting college, and I want to spend it road tripping with my dog through Texas. How much time do I need to budget in for the drive from my college state of Missouri to Texas?

Road trips are so much fun, and
Texas
is a great state for it! The Texas and
Missouri
borders are actually only about 275 miles apart, which is about a 4.5-hour drive. I doubt your college is right on the southern Missouri border though, is it?
Don’t worry, even if you’re going to school all the way up in the northwest corner of the Show-Me State, you still only need to budget about 10 hours for the drive back from Texas.
You and your pup are going to be spending a lot of hours driving for your road trip, so make sure you factor finding great
car insurance
into your travel preparations. Finding the best car insurance at the best price may sound like a big job, but with
