Have fun--keep in mind winter is creeping in in the higher elevations. Interstate 40/Route 66 start going into the mountains, I believe, starting in New Mexico if my geography memory serves me. From New Mexico westward through Arizona, you will be in higher elevations. While not necessarily Mt. Everest elevation, you will be potentially in snowstorm elevation for this portion; plus cold temps even without snow. Not to scare you, but check the elevation for your own sake and the temps.
If you plan to swing through the southern border area, let me know. I am in Yuma, Arizona which Interstate 8 runs through about 170 miles east of San Diego, and continues east where it meets up with Interstate 10, if you intend to follow Interstate 10 back to Texas.
Have fun, but check the weather, especially in the higher elevations.
