WoW! For $49 bucks you can fly from Dallas to San Diego via Las Vegas. Now that is cheap to get to the west coast. $49 bucks in gas for car won't get you out of Texas from LF to the west. Then you have 3 more states to get thru to get ya to the west coast at San Diego, Cal. I have driven this by car before and it took me 24 hours straight thru (no hotel stops).
Google says 3hrs 10 mins by air, 1360ish miles by car @ approx 20 hrs, add in gas, pit stops, and to eat, your easily at 24 hrs plus and more like 26-28 hrs. Even with the stop in Vegas, it's less than 6 hrs by air @ $49 bucks. By car; 26 hrs to 28 @ approx a minimum 3 tanks if not 4 @ approx $30-$50 bucks per fill, $10-$30 bucks per food stop, and a possible overnight stay by most at an average $80-$150 hotel stay, now your trip is in the $300-$750 plus. No brainer to take the flight.
