I believe it. When I moved to Houston from SE Arizona, it was a 20-hour drive, and 16 hours of that was spent crossing Texas. OTOH, it only used to take us a maximum of 8 hours to get from our house in AZ to San Diego.

We all hear the jokes about everything being bigger in Texas. This might put things in perspective:.
Before we start, El Paso is the western-most part of Texas. Houston is not the eastern-most part of Texas, but is pretty close.
El Paso is closer to California than it is to Houston and Houston is closer to Florida than El Paso. Plus, Texas is the only state with three cities exceeding 1 million in population; Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio.
