So, you're planning a road trip from Valdosta to Houston, huh? Well, buckle up, buttercup, because you're in for a long haul. We're talking about a whopping 780-ish miles of asphalt adventure. That's like driving from New York to Chicago... and then deciding to keep going.
Is it Really That Far?

How to Survive the Drive
