It depends on the route. Dallas to Houston is typically 1-2 days. Dallas to El Paso or Houston to El Paso can take 2-3 days due to the 700+ mile distances involved. Most carriers running Texas routes make multiple stops, so transit times reflect the full route, not just your leg.

It can be during peak summer. Enclosed trailer interiors can exceed 140 degrees in direct sun.

El Paso sits 600-750 miles west of the Texas Triangle (Dallas, Houston, San Antonio), essentially at the far western tip of the state. Carrier routes to El Paso more closely resemble Southwest corridor pricing (similar to Phoenix or Tucson) because of the distance and lower carrier density in West Texas.
