An alternative to part of I-40 is to take US Hwy 64 from Conway to Marion/West Memphis. Avoids heavy truck traffic and Little Rock, maybe adds 20-30 minutes. Part of 64 is divided 4-lane, truck traffic is light, plus part of route has alternating 3 lane passing sections every 5-10 miles. Not that many towns to slow you down either.
