And of course assuming that they are both driving split type IIs. It's only 150 miles from Marshall to Dallas, therefore they could each make the entire trip since each would drive less than the range of 189 miles. Now of course this also assumes that neither is following Paul Smith who would probably take a wrong turn and wind up in Nacogdoches or some other way out place, in which case they would never meet up and both run out of gas.
