Tucumcari, Las Vegas, Santa Fe and Taos are all cool side trip in NM. Very worth the detour. The Big Texan might be fun in Amarillo.(lot of open horizon on I-40 in the Texas Panhandle. Clinton, OK has a neat downtown. Lots to do in OKC. Shawnee is a kind of neat town. I-40 has plenty of spots near old Route 66 so its hard to not see some great stuff if you keep alert. Of course your final destination is no slouch either. Drive safe.
