Des Moines to Dallas

Miles Traveled: 760

Car Hours: 12

Miles per Gallon: 32.8, 33.79

States: Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas

Best Proper Noun: Sanger, TX. I couldn't help wondering if my favorite Red State knew they were naming their town after a hero of feminism and women's health care. Suckers.

Best Rest Stop: Southbound I-35 in Blackwell, Oklahoma. The counters were granite. There was a tourism bureau lady, in a wood paneled lobby. Also, there was a National Guard member outside with an adorable dog. A+

Best Car: Maroon suburban with OU flags flying and a message written on the back window: "HONK IF YOU EAT BEEF!"
