Docj is right about the best route back to Dallas. Having previously lived in Dallas and a daughter in Colorado, we have driven this route many times, in both directions. A few years ago, we had a 37-foot diesel coach when my Dad took ill in Massachusetts. We were just outside of LA when this happened. Somewhere around Grand Junction, where my daughter lives, my Dad took a turn for the worse. My wife, who is an excellent driver, had never driven a motor home before. From that point until Massachusetts, we team drove back. During her first turn at the wheel, I watched for about 10 minutes. After that, I was satisfied that she was doing OK, I went in the back and took a nap. She did great on a 2-lane interstate out in the country. Anything more complicated than that (3 lanes, toll booths, cities) she was too uncomfortable to drive, so I did those parts.
The best way to Dallas includes a few short stretches of interstates with a whole lot of US highways. This route may not be the best one for her to learn to drive the coach. Good luck with whatever you wind up doing.
