Sunset in Dallas is like 5:30 now. Averaging 60 MPH for 5 hours and 30 minutes puts you 330 miles west. That puts me in Odessa where sunset was 5:50.


frick that. I’ve driven Texas around that time. Absolutely nothing west of the Dallas area.

Your latitude matters immensely.


You are correct in pointing out that latitude matters. Doing this in an arctic circle during the summer is a bit of a cheat code, though.

Forget chasing a sunset, Chasing a solar eclipse for 74 minutes in a Concorde

Drive west on Sunset
To the sea
Turn that jungle music down
Just until we're out of town
This is no one night stand
It's a real occasion
Close your eyes and you'll be there
It's everything they say
The end of a perfect day
Distant lights from across the bay
