I'm going to be flying (big aluminum tube) to Prescott, AZ on Wednesday morning, then flying back (little cessna spam can) from there to Birmingham. Is anybody in the Prescott, AZ area or Dallas, TX area? Any recommendations for fuel stops and/or routes that I should follow? Any projects that I could take a look at?
Thanks in advance.

Well, I'll presume that you are changing planes in Phoenix to some
small aircraft to fly to Prescott. Not that it matters. Bell DeRouchey
and John Ackerman are in Prescott, may be others. Both have been
flying for sometime.
As for fuel stops, I'll assume you are starting full. On southern
route, first cheap spot is Lordsburg NM at 5.15 a gal. In the past I
have used PEQ, Pecos, as a fuel and overnight stop.
If you elect to stay north, St Johns is cheapest in AZ. BGD in TX
panhandle is good overnight stop and usually cheap fuel with courtesy
car available. Altus OK isn't too bad for overnight, IIRC had to get
ride from FBO to motel and back.

and also just FYI be cautious about your density altitude.........I have always thought Prescott was a little deceiving because visually it is lower than the distant mountains surrounding but its at 5000 ft. and its hot out here.
