Air

by Rude_boy22

Air travel into Texas is cheap. There is a large international airport (DFW) that is fairly easy to navigate through.Don't bother with the public transit, it's no good. Drivers here are a pretty aggressive and hard to deal with too, however.

Texas Cheap Gas Advice

by bocmaxima

I-10 West, San Antonio to El Paso:Fill up in San Antonio and El Paso. In between, Van Horn is generally cheaper than Fort Stockton by 10-20% and Sonora/Ozona is cheaper than Fort Stockton by about 20%.US 90 West, San Antonio to Van Horn:Fill up in San Antonio, top off in Del Rio. If you need gas after that, Alpine is the best town to get it in, although it won't be cheap.

Texas Has Terrific Rest Stops

by DueSer

One thing I do like about Texas is that they have really amazing rest stops. This may not sound like a big deal but considering how large the state is and how many miles of road they have, a rest stop can quickly become a very important thing in your life.Every rest stop is unique and fully loaded with all the bells and whistles. If you need it, I am almost certain you'll find it. Not just bathrooms and vending machines but tourist information, the internet, playgrounds for the kids, you name it. They're really terrific and put other states to shame.
