I 40 is a straight shot and mostly very good road but... Not sure you want to be that far north in January. If you do go that route definitely head south on I 25 and go west on I 10 through Tucson. You would probably be safer weather wise to get further south and make most of the trip on I 20.
:C
GoogleMaps shows the trip at 32 hours for I-40; and that's if you take I-40 all the way to Flagstaff and I-17 down to PDX.
It also lists the trip at 33 hours taking I-81, I-40,I-24 to I-59 and I-20 through Jackson, Shreveport, Dallas and other points south. The extra hour might be worth it to avoid our (iffy) winter weather down here. (Like KO mentioned... There were places well south of us in Tuscaloosa that got hammered with ice 'n' snow last year!)
