My son, who lives in England, is attending a wedding in Dallas in early July, and planned a convoluted way to get there. He's flying to Los Angeles, spending three or four days there, then taking the train from there to El Paso, Texas. There, he's renting a car, and driving to Austin over the course of three or four days, spending a couple of days in Austin (having returned the car,) then bus to Dallas for the wedding festivities.
On the spur of the moment I decided to join him on the El Paso to Austin road trip and then a couple of days in Austin. I realise it'll be hot out there. What's to see between El Paso and Austin? Davy Crockett monument, Caverns of Sonora? How about El Paso, is it worth me getting there a day or so earlier, is it full of really interesting things to visit?
Thanks in advance!

Having done Phx to Austin I can tell you that there just isn't much in west Texas other than about 500 miles of I-10. On the plus side the speed limit is 85.

PS - if you're turning the car in at Austin and then staying on for a few more days, Uber is your friend.

No point. It's flat, boring and hot. Fly into LA, do whatever, fly from LA to Austin or DFW if that's where the wedding is. Be aware that 1-way rentals are sh1t expensive..
That road trip is nothing at all to get excised about.... ELP is a hot sweaty dump to be avoided....

If you are interested you could also go up into the Davis Mountains to the MacDonald Observatory which is a neat place to tour and also see the Fort Davis ruins which may also interest you as they do a very good tour as well.
You might want to try and stay off I10 as much as possible, we did this 2 weeks ago, and we drove on US 90 which was much more interesting. A great place to stop on US 90 is a very small town called Langtry (named after Lilly) and it is the town of Judge Roy Bean! If you blink you miss it but the small museum is great. They also have the best cactus garden right next to it.
If you stay on 90 until San Antonio then you can make your way to Austin.
Top tip: top up your gas tank whenever you can as there are sometimes long distances between gas stations. And it will be very very hot in July!
Also if you get chance Google La Kiva murder and see if you can find a Houston Chronicle report on this, it's an interesting story.

I haven't been to El Paso in years but, I loved it the few times that I was there. Like most border towns, there is a strong Mexican influence that I think you'll enjoy. It's not a glamorous place or a touristy place but rather a real place where real people live. If you've never been to that particular part of the country, it should be fun for you to just look around and "see how the other half lives". If you like El Paso, you might try Laredo next time ... now that's the shit.
McAllen was in a similar vein, too.
Recommend you stop in San Antonio and check out the Alamo!

Sugarmooma's right about Mcdonald observatory and the area around there. Book your tickets though as it can get busy. Marfa's meant to be nice and artsy - I keep meaning to get there but somehow haven't.
San Antonio is definitely worth a visit... not just the alamo in the city centre but also the "missions" - if anything I think they are better.
Austin? Well my home town... no Uber or Lyft though, they've had a tantrum and walked out - at least for now. Look on Do512 for things to do, although just a walk down 6th Street with music and the bars is fun. Stand up paddle board on the lake. swim in Barton Creek - it will be lovely and cool. Depending on when you are here, there are free outdoor movies on the long center lawn with music and food trailers. Of course there are BBQ places. I'm not a great lover of BBQ so maybe someone else will advise you that. Airbnb in one of the cute houses around the city center would be nice and then you may even manage on bikes although it's going to be hot in July. Or give me a call. Happy to host a night or two.

Hey thanks everybody for some great insights!
I got a decent price on flights down from Ottawa, and I'm getting in to El Paso the day before my son's train comes in, so I'm looking forward to seeing the city. Then road trip of three nights; I'm thinking of stopping in Alpine for the first night, or possibly even two nights. There are some wicked high mountains right there, and plenty to see around there. Then looking forward to the road trip to Del Rio and onward to Austin. Langtry sounds like it's worth a stop. (Also, making sure to stop for gas whenever available)

So here I am in Austin! I love the place! Call me an unsophisticated rube from rural New York, but that Wholefoods on 6th Street is amazing. It has several wine bars, cafes and restaurants right inside the supermarket. I had a superb (and very reasonably priced) salmon dish and a glass of wine at the 5th Street Seafood Restaurant in the Wholefoods.
Very good bus service from the airport in Austin to downtown. $3.50 for a 24 hour unlimited systemwide bus ticket! That's pretty good!

How was the trip?
You picked a VERY hot time to travel through the SW.
