Appreciate the advice. Now strongly considering hwy 69 either to Greenville or farther north to Bells,Tx and hwy 82. Are there stations on hwy 69, hwy 380 and hwy 82 for easy in & out to fill up? You folks are greatly helping with my route decision making. After reaching Amarillo, the easy part is I-40 to Flagstaff area. Again, thanks for all your advice.
I live just off US 380. It is almost all new 4 lane highway from Greenville to Denton. There is highway construction going on between Denton and Decatur but the highway is good and the construction does not have much effect on traffic flow. BUT. The ~35 mile stretch from the east side of McKinney to the west side of Denton has 40+ traffic lights due to incredible growth over the last 20 years.
Since I live near McKinney I do drive 380 over to 287. But if I were coming up US 69 I would stay on it to US 82 at Bells. A few small towns that way, and mostly 2 lane highway, but no traffic. There are stations on 69 and 82, at least to Gainsville. But can't remember exactly where RV friendly ones are located.
