Iin a truck like that you probably don't want to take the Colorado-Utah route, especially this time of year. The OK-TX-NM-AZ is virtually the same distance and a lot flatter. I really have no idea how many miles per tank you can do in the truck, but it's pretty common to have a couple of hundred miles between gas stations, so you'll want to plan for that.

Im originally from Rochester NY. Watertown is shitty little town about 2 1/2 to 3 hrs north east of Rochester in the middle of nowhere. Ive driven from LA to Rochester about 6 times. Its 3 days if you stop off to sleep at night & It can be done in 2 days if you have multiple drivers taking shifts. However a one way flight to Syacuse NY is only 7 hrs. From there you would only be an hour drive to Watertown. Hope this helps!
