Sometimes, it’s all about the destination, and when you’re headed somewhere like New York, all you want to do is get there quickly. To get there as fast and easily as possible, the best route from
Dallas
to
New York
follows I-40 East to I-81 North.
Your drive will cover nearly 1,600 miles, which is 24 hours of driving time. We don’t recommend driving it without stopping—no matter how many of you might be splitting the drive. Give yourself at least two to three days to complete the drive safely.
