What’s the best route from Phoenix to Seattle?

I’m driving from Phoenix to Seattle next month to visit my dad. It’s a long way, so I want to do a few overnights and make a road trip out of it. What’s the best route from Phoenix to Seattle?

Phoenix
to
Seattle
—it’s 1,490 miles long, or about 24 hours of driving:
  • Take I-10 W to 1-17 N
  • Follow I-17 N to US-180 W in Flagstaff; take I-40 E to exit 201 from US-89 N
  • Take US-89 N to I-15 N in Iron County; continue to I-84 N
  • Get on I-82 W and take that to I-90 W
  • Take exit 2C to Seattle
